Hypertension and Exercise Training: Evidence from Clinical Studies

Abstract: Hypertension is a worldwide prevalent disease, mostly manifested as its primary ethiology, characterized by a chronic, multifactorial, asymptomatic, and usually incurable state. It is estimated that more than one billion of the world population is hypertensive. Also, hypertension is the main cause of the two most frequent causes of death worldwide: myocardial infarction and stroke. Due to the necessity of the cardiovascular system to manage chronically increased levels of blood pressure, hypertension causes se… Show more

“…Therefore, blood pressure management plays an important role in the prevention of cerebrovascular disease in patients with hypertension. Antihypertensive therapy, dietary modification, and exercise are standard strategies for management of hypertension [ 5 , 6 ]. However, approximately 50% of patients receiving treatment for hypertension were unable to accomplish the target blood pressure goal as defined by guidelines for hypertension [ 7 , 8 ].…”

“…Regarding the results by users and nonusers of antihypertensive drugs, both showed signi cant and similar reductions in SBP and DBP, emphasizing that aerobic training also has great hypotensive potential, being able to further optimize the treatment of hypertension, reducing the risks of complications and improving the clinical picture of hypertensive patients 56 .…”

“…The effect of exercise amongst the population with established CV events is also beneficial. After a myocardial infarction, exercise has been shown to prevent future complications, improve the quality of life and longevity of patients [ 33 ]. Amongst older adults with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction, exercise training is the most effective intervention to improve functional outcomes.…”
