In a pilot study, 14 pharmacologically treated hypertensive patients were given training in psychophysical relaxation exercises, reinforced by biofeedback instruments, for six weeks. The patients were asked to practise twice a day and also incorporate the exercises into everyday activities. In spite of their unchanged drug schedule, their mean blood pressure (B.P.) was reduced from 170.6/102.5 to 147.9/89.14 (P = < .001) while their mean (+/- S.D.) serum cholesterol level was reduced from 241.6 +/- 39.19 to 217.1 +/- 38.12 mg/100 ml (P = < .001). I believe the possibility of one therapy which can reduce two risk factors at the same time should be explored further in a controlled study.
在一项试点研究中,14名接受药物治疗的高血压患者接受了心理生理放松练习培训,并通过生物反馈仪器强化,为期六周。患者被要求每天练习两次,并将这些练习融入日常活动中。尽管他们的药物治疗方案没有改变,但他们的平均血压(B.P.)从170.6/102.5降至147.9/89.14(P = <.001),而他们的平均(+/-标准差)血清胆固醇水平从241.6 +/- 39.19降至217.1 +/- 38.12 mg/100 ml(P = <.001)。我认为,一种能同时降低两个风险因素的治疗方法的可能性应在对照研究中进一步探索。
