Key result
Proposed study evaluates the effect of range of motion exercises on blood pressure in hypertension.
Why the study?
Hypertension is a major public health concern and the effect of range of motion exercises on blood pressure among hypertensive individuals is not well established.
Does a structured range of motion exercise programme reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive individuals?
Does a structured range of motion exercise programme reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive individuals?
This study protocol aims to evaluate whether simple range of motion exercises can effectively lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients.

ROM exercises may aid BP control in hypertension; leaves open their role in care pending rigorous trials.
Background: Hypertension is a major public health concern associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and other long-term complications. Regular physical activity plays an important role in blood pressure management, while range of motion (ROM) exercises offer a simple and accessible approach to promoting joint mobility, muscle flexibility, and physical activity among individuals with hypertension. Objective: This study aims to assess the effect of range of motion exercises on blood pressure among hypertensive individuals and to determine the changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure following a structured exercise programme. Methodology: A quasi-experimental research design is proposed to evaluate the effectiveness of ROM exercises among individuals diagnosed with hypertension. Participants are assessed for baseline systolic and diastolic blood pressure before the intervention. The experimental group participatesin a structured ROM exercise programme for a predetermined period, while the comparison group receives routine care. Blood pressure measurements are recorded before and after the intervention to assess changes between and within the groups. Appropriate statistical methods are used to analyse the collected data. Expected Results: The study is intended to determine whether regular participation in ROM exercises is associated with improvements in systolic and diastolic
