Feasibility randomised controlled trial to assess the delivery of a novel isometric exercise intervention for people diagnosed with uncomplicated stage 1 hypertension in the National Health Service: key quantitative findings.

However, exploratory post hoc analysis comparing BP at baseline and subsequent time points showed a trend to reduced BP at all time points in the IE group (ITT=−11.9 mm Hg at 6 months), which is consistent with previous results. 23 These sBP reductions also support previous findings that IE lowers BP equally in males and females. 32 Few studies have investigated the effects of IE performed over longer durations on BP in hypertensive participants.
