    High blood pressure is considered one of the most serious chronic diseases worldwide, as it causes serious damage to the body and even death. The most affected organs are usually the heart and the brain, often leaving irreparable sequelae, which cause functional limitations and even disabilities, becoming a social health problem, which requires timely attention. Cardiac rehabilitation programs are responsible for preventing injuries associated with hypertension that are related to exercise, education and changes in the lifestyle of this population. Therefore, in this study it was proposed to determine the effects of the cardiac rehabilitation program in older adults with arterial hypertension of the Pasa 2021 parish; Through the design and application of the program, where the physiological parameters of PA, HR, and Sat O2 were measured, and the Sit to Stand and Borg Scale tests to measure tolerance to exercise, before and after the intervention. The results revealed that all the patients maintained the physiological parameters within normality throughout the program, presenting only significant variations in the Sit to Stand tests and the Borg scale (p = 0.000). Concluding that the cardiac rehabilitation program in hypertensive older adults contributes to maintaining the physiological levels of PA, HR and SatO2 within normality.

    Hypertension is a chronic disease that causes high rates of death worldwide, as it is primary to cerebrovascular diseases that are often fatal, the first treatment of choice is pharmacological, which despite its benefits on blood pressure levels, it also causes many side effects; the development and alternative therapeutic interventions that contribute to improving the quality of life and increasing the life expectancy of this population are essential. Thus, in this research, it was proposed to design a cardiorespiratory intervention plan using fitball in hypertensive adult patients who attend the HBS. For this, a bibliographic review of the scientific literature was initially carried out, from which 5 articles were obtained that fulfilled the descriptors, and the inclusion-exclusion criteria, in this way the cardiorespiratory plan was structured through the use of the fitball, with a duration of 3 months, frequency 3 times a week and sessions of 30 minutes. This plan was validated by experts and quantified with a content validation coefficient (CVCt) of 1.00 after the corrections suggested by the experts. The plan was then shared with interested professionals who generally indicated that they were partially and totally satisfied with the plan. Therefore, it is concluded that the cardiorespiratory intervention plan through fitball in hypertensive adult patients who attend the HBS, is valid and applicable to reduce blood pressure levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases in hypertensive patients.
