High-Intensity Interval Training on Pre-Hypertensive Subjects

October 10, 2018 updated by: Universidad Santo Tomas

Health Status Factors Predicting Responses to Long-Term Training: Effects of 16-Week High-Intensity Interval Training on Pre-Hypertensive Subjects

Despite exercise training decrease blood pressure in 'average' terms, there is a wide interindividual variability after exercise training, being yet unknown what mode of exercise (e.g. endurance, strength, concurrent, or high intensity interval training) produce more/less non-responder (NR) prevalence (i.e., percentage of subjects who experienced a non-change/worsened response after training in some outcome).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
142

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

20 years to 40 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: High Intensity Interval Training
Cycling on cycle ergometers (OXFORDTM, model BE2601, OXOFORD Inc, Santiago, Chile) for 1 min at a subjective intensity of 8-10 points of the modified Borg scale of 1-10 points, and interspersed by inactive (without movement over the bicycle) of 2 minutes as recovery period.
Behavioral: High Intensity Interval Training
High Intensity Interval Training pre-hypertensive group; Exercise will be performed at three sessions per week. All sessions will be supervised by an exercise physiologist during 16 weeks.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Control group
Pre-hypertensive group was compared with healthy groups in the 2 manin variables systolic/diastolic blood pressure, as well as in other co-variables in pre-post changes. Thus, after the training intervention, and following the R and NR classification, we will compare the NR prevalence between both Pre-hypertensive and Healthy group.
Behavioral: Control group
Moderade Intensity Interval Training pre-hypertensive group; Exercise will be performed at three sessions per week. All sessions will be supervised by an exercise physiologist during 16 weeks.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure
Time Frame: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends
After this, we calculated the delta changes in both variables and classified to all subjects in responders (R) and non-responders (NR) to decrease systolic or diastolic blood pressure.
Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in body mass
Time Frame: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends
Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends
Change from Baseline in body mass index
Time Frame: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends
BMI will be calculated as the body weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters.
Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends
Change from Baseline in fat mass
