Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Exercise physiology laboratory at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia. Participants: Individuals previously diagnosed with mild or pre hypertension, men (n = 6) and women (n = 10), aged 52 ± 7.9 years; with a resting systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 120mmHg and/or a resting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 80mmHg, or receiving anti-hypertensive pharmacotherapy (69%). None refused or withdrew due to adverse effects. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | ACRM 2015: 92nd Annual American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine - Progress in Rehabilitation Research, Dallas, United States of America, 25rd - 30th October, 2015 | Source of Publication: | Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 96(12), p. e25-e25 | Publisher: | Elsevier Inc | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 1532-821X 0003-9993 |
