Abstract

Introduction:The cardio respiratory fitness is having an greater role in the reduction of morbidity mortality related to the cardiac disease .In India cardiac diseases are the major cause factor for the mortality. Around 80% of death is happening in India due to cardio respiratory diseases. In 18th centuries cardiovascular disease risk age groups lies in the age above 40 years but in the current situation its being reduced to the 25-30 years due to lifestyle changes and dietary alternations. This statistics reveals the importance of early detection of risk contributing factors and the modification of such risk factors. Which can effectively beneficial for the upcoming adults. Need and Significance of the Study:Researcher have noticed high incidence of mortality due to cardiovascular disorder among young adults. The causative factor behind this is poor cardio-respiratory fitness. Thus researcher felt the need to undertake this study to identify the influencing factors of cardio-respiratory fitness among young nursing students. Aim of The Study:To identify and explore the influencing factors of cardio-respiratory fitness among young nursing students. Objectives: 1. To assess influencing factors of cardio-respiratory fitness among nursing students. 2. To determine association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max ,HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected demographic variables. 3. To determine association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max , HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected clinical profile . 4. To determine association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max, HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected diagnostic tests findings.. Methodology:Quantitative research approach was used in this study and exploratory research design was adopted for this study.100 bsc Nursing students from KGMU College was selected for this study and correlation between cardio reperatory determinants and demographic variales was analysed using inferential and non inferential statistical methods. Results :The study results projects that a clear association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max, HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected demographic variables. In the aspect of demographic variables: Family income is showing a significant association with VO2Max and its showing moderate positive correlation with VO2 Max. The study also giving the evidences of significant association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max HRR and Tolerated time in TMT) with selected diagnostic test findings Such as LDL is showing negative correlation & selected clinical profile such as skinfold test is showing a moderate positive correlation with VO2 Max. HDL in the prime parameter of diagnostic findings which is showing a positive correlation with HRR. In The aspect of tolerated time in TMT is showing an association and moderate positive correlation with2D Echo. These results were statistically proving H1, H2, H3.That means there is a significant association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max ,HRR & tolerated time in TMT ) with selected demographic variables, There is a significant association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max ,HRR and Tolerated time in TMT) with selected physical examination findings and There is a significant association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max ,HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected diagnostic tests findings. Conclusion:The study results projects that a clear association and correlation of cardio-respiratory determinants (VO2 max, HRR & Tolerated time in TMT) with selected demographic variables and other parameters such as clinical profiles and diagnostic tests.
