Arterial stiffness is a state of stiff arteries, due to thickening of the arterial wall leading to loss of its elasticity reflected in the form ofreduced compliance and expansibility. Acute increase in the arterial stiffness, which can be corrected through lifestyle modification in the form of daily routine of exercise, improved dietary habits, increased physical activity, reduced junk food, can be reduced. Subjectswith Prehypertensives (SBP between 120-139 mmHg and DBP between 80-89 mmHg),Group consist of(N=45) age-matched prehypertensive subjects belonging to the age group 40-60 yrs. Subjectswith Normotensives, (SBP <120 and DBP <80 mmHg) Group consist (N=45) age-matched normotensive subjects belonging to the age group 40-60 yrs. In our study; Pulse Rate- PR (P=0.007)*, Systolic Blood Pressure- SBP (P=0.001)*, Diastolic Blood Pressure- DBP (P=0.001)* Mean Arterial Pressure- MAP (P=0.001)* and Pulse Pressure- PP (P=0.001)* was significantly correlated with Prehypertensive and Normotensive subjects and it is statistically significant.
