Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effects of Zazen meditation on heart rate variability in patients with recent acute myocardial infarction, both acutely and chronically. Method: Randomized, controlled, parallel clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment. Heart rate variability, quality of life, spirituality, biochemical parameters, left ventricular ejection fraction, and functional capacity will be evaluated before and after twenty-four meditation sessions. Acute effects will be assessed before and after a single session. The sample will consist of forty-four participants, twenty-two in each group. Result: Zazen meditation is expected to improve autonomic modulation and the psychophysiological parameters evaluated. Conclusion: Zazen meditation may represent a promising complementary practice in the cardiac rehabilitation of patients after acute myocardial infarction.
