About this study

Official title: Sleep, Mood and Physical Activity Level in Patients With Hypertension

Introduction: Sleep disturbances may contribute to impairments in mood, occupational and intellectual performance, and social relationships, as well as being associated with cardiovascular diseases, such as arterial hypertension. Sedentary lifestyle has often been associated with poor sleep quality and hypertension; regular exercise has been studied as a coadjuvant therapy for hypertension and/or for some sleep disorders. Objective: To compare sleep pattern of active and inactive patients with arterial hypertension, as well as to evaluate complaints of depression and anxiety, and the mood profile. Material and Methods: Polysomnography, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Epworth Sleepiness Scale will be used to assess the sleep pattern. Depression will be assessed by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) anxiety, and mood pattern by the State of Mood Profile (POMS). The level of physical activity will be recorded by the number of steps taken (pedometer). Participating in the study will be 60 hypertension patients (ACTIVE, n=30; INACTIVE, n=30). Hypothesis: Active hypertensive patients better quality of sleep, better mood profile, and fewer complaints of depression and anxiety when compared to physically inactive hypertensive patients.
