Does acute and chronic exercise improve cardiovascular risk factors and blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension?
Regular aerobic exercise is beneficial for blood pressure control and cardiovascular risk factor regulation in essential hypertension, though acute exercise carries a risk of triggering cardiac events.
Gkaliagkousi et al. (2014) conducted a review in Essential hypertension. Acute and chronic exercise was evaluated. Regular aerobic exercise improves blood pressure control and cardiovascular function in essential hypertension, whereas acute exercise is an established trigger of acute cardiac events.
