No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Aerobic exercise has the potential to diminish blood pressure values. The aim of this study is to determine whether this potential is also applicable for those with resistant hypertension and whether exercise intensity plays a role in this context. We hypothesize that performing an aerobic exercise session reduces blood pressure values in resistant hypertensive patients in a dose-response relation with exercise intensity.
