Description

Background: Policemen and Sportsmen are symbol of physically fit healthy individuals. Medical facts are contrary as police recruits in training are anemic. Material & Method: 50 physically fit recruits aged 20-29 years of Police Training School, Indore were subdivided into three groups according to their exercising period as non-exercising, exercising for 2 months and 10 months respectively. Fasting sample of blood was collected for hematological parameters. These 3 groups were assessed for pulmonary function tests. Students t-test and Chi square tests were applied to all 3 groups. Results: Hematological parameters were lower in group B and C whereas the PFT were recorded higher in group B and C in comparison to group A but was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Hematological parameters shows decrease with increase in exercise indicating sports anemia.
