Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Patients suffering from hypertension have not had any specific exercise regimen. In recent years, dance has been made a compulsory part of classes in Japan, and we thought it could be a tool for continued exercise. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate how much blood pressure and body composition change after watching a self-made dance video and actually performing the movements.

Interventions/Control_1

Exercise therapy using dance videos Five dance videos with exercise intensities of 5-7 metabolic equivalents (METs) were created. They may use any of the videos, but instructed that the five videos should be performed for 70 minutes per week. This would be a total of 2 months of intervention. Tell them to watch the videos once a day if possible. Regardless of intervention or non-intervention, the participants will be asked to wear an accelerometer (wGT3X-BT monitor/Acti Japan) for 2 weeks before and 6 weeks after the intervention, and the amount of physical activity will be evaluated by picking 4 days during the 2 weeks when the wearing time exceeds 10 hours or more.

Results

A total of 34 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 56 years, and 18 (53%) of the patients were female. The mean BMI was 28.0, and SBP and DBP were 139.5 (SD 17.1) mm Hg and 85.8 (SD 9.1) mm Hg, respectively. The basic characteristics did not differ between the two groups. In the multivariate analysis, SBP and DBP improved significantly in the intervention group compared to the control group (mean SBP 12.8, SD 6.1 mm Hg; P=.047; mean DBP 9.7, SD 3.3 mm Hg; P=.006).

Baseline Characteristics

Juntendo Hospital General Internal Medicine Outpatient Department Regularly seen hypertension patients

Participant flow

One of the authors, TM, created the random number table. MS conducted the recruitment. An administrative assistant (neither a co-author nor a collaborator) performed the group allocation.
The study targeted patients attending the hypertension outpatient clinic of the Department of General Practice at Juntendo University. Participants were patients diagnosed with hypertension who were regularly taking oral medication. They were invited to participate in this study by their primary physician, whom they regularly visit for hypertension management, and provided informed consent. Participants were informed that participation was voluntary and that they could withdraw at any time, even after starting. They were also informed that their primary physician could decide to withdraw them from the study if a change in their medical condition necessitated it. Patients with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease or other complications making exercise unsuitable, patients unable to maintain balance on one leg, patients newly prescribed antihypertensive medication, or patients who had antihypertensive medication added during the study period were excluded.

Adverse events

None.

Outcome measures

The variables used in this study were gender, age, number of antihypertensive drugs, number of lifestyle-related diseases (diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hyperuricemia), medical history (cerebral infarction and ischemic heart disease), height, body weight, body muscle mass, body fat mass, family in need of care (children and adults), the presence of cohabitants, exercise habits, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and MVPA per day (corresponding to activity levels that are moderate or higher in intensity, namely, a level of 3 METs or higher).
The main outcome of this study was BP. During the study period, we measured the BP and body composition of the patients twice for comparison. This was performed on the day of participation and 2 months after participation during outpatient visits.
