Abstract
Aim: To see the effectiveness of Aerobic Exercise training in enhancing Blood Pressure control in Grade 1 and Grade 2 Hypertensive’s. Objectives: To determine the blood pressure control in patients who are on medications only and who perform aerobic exercise along with the medications. Procedure: 60 subjects were collected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Written consent forms were taken from the respective subjects for study. Participants were divided in group 1 and group 2 by simple random sampling for 4 weeks. Group 1 received Aerobic Exercise training along with medications and Group 2 were kept only on medications. Each group received 45 min individual training session 3 times a week. The outcome measure was the Blood Pressure values measured before and after the treatment protocol by a Sphygmomanometer. Result: After 4 weeks group 1 showed more reduction in B.P than group 2(p<0.0001, considered extremely significant). Conclusion: This study concludes that Aerobic Exercise along with medications is more effective in reducing B.P than medications only.
