- The study investigated the side effects of regadenoson, a stress agent for heart imaging, when combined with two types of low-level exercise, focusing on different body mass index (BMI) categories.
- A total of 356 patients participated, undergoing either treadmill walking or sitting leg swings, with results showing differences in side effects based on the type of exercise rather than BMI.
- Treadmill exercise led to fewer side effects like flushing and dizziness compared to sitting exercises, and while heart rate increased more in the treadmill group, blood pressure remained stable across all BMI categories.
