Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Treadmill Test exertion females
Treadmill testing
Patients will have a exercise stress test using a Bruce protocol during which time heart rates and blood pressures will be monitored and the patient's percieved exertion level monitored and recorded
Treadmill test exertion males
Treadmill testing
Patients will have a exercise stress test using a Bruce protocol during which time heart rates and blood pressures will be monitored and the patient's percieved exertion level monitored and recorded
Sexual activity exertion females
Ambulatory Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Monitoring
Patients will wear an ambulatory blood pressure monitor and an heart rate monitor during one sexual encounter.
Sexual activity exertion males
Ambulatory Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Monitoring
Patients will wear an ambulatory blood pressure monitor and an heart rate monitor during one sexual encounter.
