ABSTRACT

Hypertensive patients have high blood pressure and poor cardiovascular health and it is known that hypertension negatively affects people's health-related quality of life. Meta-analyses have shown that isometric handgrip training (IHT) reduces blood pressure in hypertensives, but the effects of IHT on health-related quality of life is unknown. Therefore, we tested the hypotheses that the IHT improves health-related quality of life in hypertensives. In this randomized controlled trial, 48 hypertensive individuals were randomly assigned to two groups: IHT and control. IHT was completed thrice weekly (4 × 2 min at 30% of maximal voluntary contraction). Before and after 12 weeks healthrelated quality of life was assessment through Medical Outcomes Study Questionnaire Short Form 36 (SF36). No significant effect was observed for physical function (IHT: 85.6±4.6 vs. 81.1±7.2; Control: 78.6±76.7±4.9), physical problems (IHT: 71.4±10.1vs. 83.9±8.1; Control: 73.8±8.2 vs. 64.3±8.0), general health (IHT: 56.1±3.7 vs. 57.1±1.9; Control: 54.3±1.6 vs. 57.6±2.1), pain (IHT: 23.6±4.6 vs. 30.7±5.8; Control: 32.9±4.5 vs. 31.9±4.3), social aspects (IHT: 46.4±3.6 vs. 50.0±2.3; Control: 48.8±2.7 vs. 48.8±1.7), emotional problems (IHT: 85.7±8.4 vs. 92.9±5.2; Control: 79.4±7.8 vs. 71.4±6.6), mental health (IHT: 61.7±2.8 vs. 58.0±2.5; Control: 54.5±2.4 ± 55.6±1.9), and vitality (IHT: 60.0±4.3 vs. 58.6±4.0; Control: 50.7±2.9 vs. 53.6±3.0) after 12-weeks of supervised IHT (p>0.05 for all). In conclusion, 12-weeks of IHT does not improve health-related quality of life in hypertensives. Therefore, in order to improve quality of life, other exercises should be an indicated for hypertensive patients...(AU)


Pacientes hipertensos têm pressão arterial elevada e saúde cardiovascular prejudicada, e, sabese que a hipertensão também afeta negativamente a qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde. Meta-análises têm demonstrado que o treinamento de exercício isométrico com handgrip (IHT) reduz pressão arterial, mas os efeitos do IHT na qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde são esconhecidos. Portanto, foi testado a hipótese que o IHT melhora a qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde em hipertensos. Nesse ensaio clínico controlado randomizado, 48 hipertensos foram randomizados em IHT e controle. IHT foi realizado três vezes semanais (4 x 2 minutos a 30% da contração voluntária máxima). Antes e após 12 semanas, a qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde foi avaliada pelo Medical Outcomes Study Questionnaire Short Form 36. Nenhum efeito significante foi observado para função física (IHT: 85,6±4,6 vs. 81,1±7,2; Controle: 78,6±76,7±4,9), problemas físicos (IHT: 71,4±10,1 vs. 83,9±8,1; Controle: 73,8±8,2 vs. 64,3±8,0), estado geral de saúde (IHT: 56,1±3,7 vs. 57,1±1,9; Controle: 54,3±1,6 vs. 57,6±2,1), dor (IHT: 23,6±4,6 vs. 30,7±5,8; Controle: 32,9±4,5 vs. 31,9±4,3), aspectos sociais (IHT: 46,4±3,6 vs. 50,0±2,3; Controle: 48,8±2,7 vs. 48,8±1,7), problemas emocionais (IHT: 85,7±8,4 vs. 92,9±5,2; Controle: 79,4±7,8 vs. 71,4±6,6), saúde mental (IHT: 61,7±2,8 vs. 58,0±2,5; Controle: 54,5±2,4 ± 55,6±1,9), e vitalidade (IHT: 60,0±4,3 vs. 58,6±4,0; Controle: 50,7±2,9 vs. 53,6±3,0) após 12 semanas de IHT (p>0.05 para todos). Em conclusão, 12 semanas de IHT não melhora a qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde em hipertensos. Portanto, para melhorar a qualidade de vida, outras modalidades de exercício deveriam ser indicadas para pacientes hipertensos...(AU)
