About this study

Official title: 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).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High Intensity Interval TrainingBehavioural

    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.

  • Control groupBehavioural

    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.

Study groups in NCT03000140
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
High Intensity Interval TrainingExperimentalCycling 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.
Receives: Behavioral: High Intensity Interval Training
Control groupActive comparatorPre-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.
Receives: Behavioral: Control group

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from Baseline in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure

    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.

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change from Baseline in body mass

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  2. Change from Baseline in body mass index

    BMI will be calculated as the body weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters.

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  3. Change from Baseline in waist circumference

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  4. Change from Baseline in fat mass

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  5. Change from Baseline in heart rate at rest

    Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  6. Change from Baseline in fasting glucose

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  7. Change from Baseline in lipids

    Lipid profile (low-density cholesterol, total cholesterol, high-density cholesterol and triglycerides)

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

  8. Change from Baseline in one maximum repetition strength test of leg-extension exercise

    Measured: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Intensity Interval Training in people with Metabolism Disorder and Hypertension, run by Universidad Santo Tomas at 1 site in Chile.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Chile. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from Baseline in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure (time frame: Baseline and 16 weeks immediately after the interventions ends). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03000140, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Oct 2018.
