ABSTRACT
Background. Prevalence of essential arterial hypertension is 60-80% among cardiovascular diseases and WHO reported that prevalence of essential arterial hypertension was 90-95% of arterial hypertension and 80% of hospitalized arterial hypertension patients. One of risk factors of essential arterial hypertension is (lack) deficiency of physical activity. Therefore we studied a benefit of exercise in essential arterial hypertension therapy. Methods. We examined blood lipid level and some of cardiovascular indicators of essential arterial hypertension patients such as arterial pressure, heart rate before and after treatment of exercise. Results. Prevalence of essential arterial hypertension was higher in the patients with obesity and overweight. Right high and low blood pressures were decreased from 154 to 141 and from 93 to 85, respectively. The other hand left high and low blood pressures were decreased from 154 to 138 and from 94 to 86, respectively. Heart rate was decreased from 76 to 71.9. Conclusions. Arterial pressure, heart rate and lipid level of the patients with essential arterial hypertension were significantly decreased after treated by exercise.
