a Abbreviations: Cont, control; Exp, experimental; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; PR, pulse rate; RR, respiratory rate; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
b P value based on independent samples t-test for comparison of Exp and Cont groups at each time point.
c P value based on repeated measures ANOVA for testing within the control group the changes over time. Dependent on the results of Mauchly’s test, P values presented are based on the Greenhouse-Geiser test.
d P value based on repeated measures ANOVA for testing within the experimental group the changes over time. Dependent on the results of Mauchly’s test, P values presented are based on the Greenhouse-Geiser test.
e P value based on Hotelling T2 for overall comparison of the experimental and control groups.
