NCT06612099

Brief Summary

The research aims to compare two different exercise approaches applied to hypertensive individuals. After completion of the research, it will be revealed which exercise approach is more effective on the parameters evaluated in hypertensive individuals. In this context, it is aimed to increase the use of the exercise approach, which is found to be more effective in hypertensive individuals, in the treatment program.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Blood Pressure

    During the measurement, the patient should not be talking, should be leaning back, sitting on a chair, without crossing his legs, without crossing his feet, with his feet touching the ground, with his arm supported at heart level, and after resting calmly for at least 5 minutes. After the brachial artery is palpated in the arm, the cuff is placed 2-3 cm below the antecubital fossa. After inflating sufficiently, the pressure will be reduced and the measurement value will be recorded after carefully listening to the beginning and end of the Korotkoff sounds.

    2 months

  • Functional Capacity

    6 Minute Walk Test will be used to evaluate the submaximal functional capacity of the patients. The aim of this test is to walk the longest distance possible in a 30 meter long corridor within 6 minutes. The testing will be performed in accordance with the guidelines reported by the American Thoracic Society.

Study Arms (3)

Aerobic Exercise Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Individuals in this group will perform aerobic exercise training on a treadmill/bicycle under the supervision of a physiotherapist for a period of 8 weeks, consisting of a total of 24 training sessions. Moderate intensity aerobic exercise training will be set by calculating the target heart rate range. During the training session, individuals will receive a total of 50 minutes of training, consisting of a 10-minute warm-up, 30 minutes of moderate walking/cycling and a 10-minute cool-down period. In addition to the aerobic exercise training group, on the days he does not come to the session, resistance exercises will be taught in the form of 2 sets of 8 repetitions, with weights of 60-80% of 1 maximum repetition, according to the guidelines of the American Sports Medicine Association, and will be given as home exercises.

Other: Aerobic Exercise

Mat Pilates Exercise Group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Individuals in this group will perform mat pilates exercises under the supervision of a physiotherapist for a period of 8 weeks, consisting of a total of 24 exercise sessions. During the exercise sessions, individuals will undergo a 50-minute mat pilates exercise program. In addition to the mat pilates exercise group, on the days when he does not come to the session, resistance exercises will be taught in the form of 2 sets of 8 repetitions, 60-80% of 1 maximum repetition, according to the guidelines of the American Sports Medicine Association, and will be given as home exercises.

Other: Mat Pilates Exercise

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Hypertensive individuals who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will note their blood pressure values 2 days a week for 8 weeks and share them with the physiotherapist. Patients in this group will be instructed to continue their normal lives.
