Aerobic Exercise and Resistant Hypertension

Effects of Two Types of Aerobic Training on Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Hypertensives: a Systems Biology Approach

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Sept 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will examine the effects of 4 months of aerobic interval training versus continuous aerobic training on ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) and novel plasma protein biomarkers in patients with resistant hypertension. A randomized controlled trial will be performed including two exercise groups and a control group: a) moderate-intensity interval training (MIIT); b) moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT); c) usual care. MIIT could represent a superior training modality that exceeds the benefits of MICT in patients with resistant hypertension.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Severe ischemic heart disease, major psychiatric disorder and other health contraindications that may interfere in the evaluations or interventions.

Other

  • Exclusion criteria will include exercising more than 30 minutes on 3 days or more weekly.

Who the study is looking for

  • Patients with resistant hypertension (RH) (i.e., systolic BP/diastolic BP \>130/80 mmHg according to the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association) despite the concurrent use of three or more antihypertensive drugs - commonly including a diuretic, a long-acting calcium channel blocker, and a blocker of the renin-angiotensin system. RH also includes patients whose BP achieves target values on ≥ 4 antihypertensive. medications (i.e., 'controlled' RH).
  • Adherence to prescribed medications.
  • Willing to be randomized to one of the 3 groups.
  • Informed consent.
