UNASSIGNED: This was a randomised, controlled, assessor-blinded trial. Participants were randomised to either IHT (intervention group) or usual care (control group).
UNASSIGNED: Participants randomised to the intervention group performed a session of 16 min of effective workout home-based IHT three times per week for 20 weeks. Participants randomised to the control group were asked to continue their daily activities as usual.
UNASSIGNED: The primary outcome was the difference in SBP between groups over 20 weeks. Secondary outcomes were diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, handgrip strength, and self-administered home blood pressure measures.
UNASSIGNED: Forty-eight adults (mean [SD] age, 64 [8] years) were included in this trial. The adjusted between-group mean difference in SBP was 8.12 mmHg (95% CI 0.24 to 16.01, p = 0.04) - favouring the usual care group. No differences between groups were found in any of the home blood pressure measurements.
UNASSIGNED: This trial showed that 20 weeks of home-based isometric handgrip training was not superior compared to the usual care in lowering SBP.
■这是一个随机的,控制,评估者盲法试验。参与者被随机分为IHT(干预组)或常规护理(对照组)。
■随机分配到干预组的参与者进行为期16分钟的家庭IHT有效锻炼,每周三次,共20周。随机分配到对照组的参与者被要求像往常一样继续他们的日常活动。
■主要结果是20周内组间SBP的差异。次要结果是舒张压,心率,握力,和自我管理的家庭血压测量。
■48名成年人(平均[SD]年龄,64[8]年)纳入本试验。调整后的SBP组间平均差异为8.12mmHg(95%CI0.24至16.01,p=0.04)-有利于常规护理组。在任何家庭血压测量中,组间没有发现差异。
■该试验表明,在降低SBP方面,20周的家庭等距握力训练并不优于常规护理。
