Anti-hypertensive Therapy and Exercise Treatment to Improve Vascular Health in Patients With Hypertension. A Randomized Controlled Trial.
This is a prospective, monocentric, randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of anti-hypertensive treatment and/or individualized exercise training intervention on blood pressure and vascular health. Furthermore the investigators want to decipher mechanisms, which contribute to vascular health by analyzing changes in metabolism and cell function in relation to vascular reaction.
Inclusion: systolic hypertension grade I-II (BP values >140 mmHg to <180 mmHg) without anti-hypertensive medication treatment.
Exclusion: isolated diastolic hypertension; chronic eye diseases on both eyes (for example macular degeneration or glaucoma) or high intraocular pressure (>20 mmHg); age <18 years; no written informed consent; medical contraindications for the exercise treatment (for example orthopedic problems or an abnormal ECG during the cardio respiratory exercise test).
