About this trial

The aim of the study was to determine the rehabilitative effects of 12-week variable intensity swimming exercises on the cardiovascular system in women with diastolic dysfunction. Studies on how variable intensity swimming exercises contribute to the course of the disease in sedentary women with cardiovascular problems are limited. Previous studies generally consisted of studies on the effects of exercise applications on the cardiovascular system in different branches and their effects were determined.
