Personalized exercise for mild high blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a personalized exercise plan (based on a 6-minute walking test) can help people with mild high blood pressure who are overweight. It may be a good fit if you already exercise and your health risks are low.

This study is testing whether a combination of blood pressure medication and a supervised exercise program can improve the health of your blood vessels. It's for people with mild to moderate high blood pressure who are not already on medication.
This trial tests whether guided physical activity counseling helps people with early high blood pressure become more active. If you have pre- or stage 1 hypertension, are not on blood pressure medication, and exercise less than 150 minutes per week, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two types of water-based exercise—short, intense bursts versus a steady, moderate pace—in older adults with high blood pressure that is already being controlled. It may help determine which exercise style lowers blood pressure and is easier or safer to stick with.
This study tests whether combining special breathing techniques (Pilates and diaphragmatic breathing) with moderate cycling exercise can help lower blood pressure and improve lung function in people with high blood pressure. You'll practice these techniques over several weeks to see if they reduce your blood pressure more effectively than exercise alone.
This trial tests a personalized approach to treating high blood pressure based on the specific causes of your condition. It aims to see if individual treatment plans are more effective than standard care.
This study tests whether playing interactive video games (exergaming) can help people with high blood pressure get active and improve their health. It is for adults who have not exercised in the last 3 months.
