Study information
| Study design | Randomised controlled trial |
|---|---|
| Primary study design | Interventional |
| Secondary study design | Randomised controlled trial |
| Study setting(s) | Not specified |
| Study type | Treatment |
| Scientific title | |
| Study acronym | CT, ORH & BP |
| Study objectives | In comparison with the Usual Care group (UC), obese hypertensive individuals undergoing 12 weeks of Circuit Weight Training (CWT), will exhibit greater reductions in blood pressure. |
| Ethics approval(s) | University of Alberta Health Research Ethics Board (HREB) (ref no: 6276). |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Obesity and /or resistant hypertension |
| Intervention | Circuit Weight Training (CWT) group: Individuals will be prescribed an exercise regimen based on baseline fitness and strength assessments and their exercise blood pressure response. Loads prescribed will be low resistance but high volume (two to three sets of 15 repetitions). Subjects will be asked to train on at least three non-consecutive days of the week and given free membership to local health club facilities for the duration of the intervention (12 weeks). Adherence to CWT intervention will be monitored via electronic attendance records at the health club facilities Usual Care (UC) Group: Individuals randomly assigned to the usual care group will be asked to continue their current level of activity for the duration of the intervention (12 weeks). Both groups will recieve the same nutritional counselling at the start of the intervention. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Efficacy of prescribing circuit weight training in reducing blood pressure of obese resistant hypertensives |
| Secondary outcome measures | 1. Effiacy of circuit weight training in reducing weight 2. Increasing cardio-respiratory endurance 3. Improving glycemic control and lipid profiles 4. Enhancing Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) |
| Overall study start date | 01/06/2006 |
| Completion date | 01/02/2007 |
| Reason abandoned (if study stopped) | This study has been cancelled due to the private fitness centre pulling out of the trial. |
