ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the behavior of blood pressure during exercise in patients with hypertension controlled by frontline antihypertension drugs.METHODS:
From 979ergometric tests we retrospectively selected 49 hipertensive patients (19 males). The age was 53+/-12 years old and normal range rest arterial pressure (<=140/90 mmHg) all on pharmacological monotherapy. There were 12 on beta blockers; 14 on calcium antagonists, 13 on diuretics and 10 on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor. Abnormal exercise behhavior of blood pressure was diagnosed if anyone of the following criteria was detected peak systolic pressure above 220 mmHg, raising of systolic pressure > or = 10 mmHg/MET; or increase of diastolic pressure greater than 15 mmHg.RESULTS:
Physiologic response of arterial blood pressure occurred in 50 percent of patients on beta blockers, the best one (p<0.05), in 36 percent and 31 percent on calcium antagonists and on diuretics, respectively, and in 20 percent on angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, the later the leastr one (p<0.05).CONCLUSION:
Beta-blockers were more effective than calcium antagonists, diuretics and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in controlling blood pressure during exercise, and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors the least effective drugs
