Study Summary
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the number one cause of on-duty firefighter death. It is most likely to occur in adults who are not physically fit that engage in sudden vigorous exercise. Cardiorespiratory physical fitness (also known as aerobic fitness) is a major heart disease risk factor. In FIT and FIRED UP, the study investigators looked at the influence of cardiorespiratory fitness on blood pressure, heart rate, and other heart markers taken from the blood before and after a vigorous exercise test to maximal effort among firefighters from a local fire department in Connecticut. In addition, the investigators also looked at how lifestyle habits including physical activity, nutrition, stress, and sleep may influence our findings. It was hypothesized that aerobically fit firefighters would show less stress on their heart than unfit firefighters.
Primary Outcome
Subjects were attached to an Oscar2 automatic noninvasive ABP monitor (Suntech Medical Instruments Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina, USA) on the nondominant arm to be worn until the next morning. The ABP monitor was programmed to record BP at regular intervals three times per waking hour and two times per sleeping hour.
