In order to assess the effects of a Behavioral Treatment Program in the control of primary hypertension, twenty one unmedicated hypertensives were randomly allocated to three groups: first, a treatment group (BHG) receiving a Behavioral Treatment which included: deep muscle relaxation, peripheral temperature Biofeedback and anxiety management training; second, the placebo attention control group (PHG) and third, a control group of hypertensives too (CHG). Additionally, were compared with seven normotensives subjects (CNG). The post-treatment measures showed a significant reduction (p < 0.001) in systolic and diastolic values only in the (BHG). In a six months follow-up the (BHG) group still showed a significant reduction in the systolic and diastolic BP (p < 0.02; p < 0.01). Moreover individual variations in response to treatment were observed in this group, (BHG).
为了评估行为治疗方案对原发性高血压的控制效果，21名未接受药物治疗的高血压患者被随机分为三组：第一组为接受行为治疗的治疗组（BHG），该治疗包括深度肌肉放松、外周温度生物反馈和焦虑管理训练；第二组为安慰剂关注对照组（PHG）；第三组为高血压对照组（CHG）。此外，还与7名血压正常的受试者（CNG）进行了比较。治疗后测量结果显示，仅在（BHG）组中，收缩压和舒张压值显著降低（p < 0.001）。在六个月的随访中，（BHG）组的收缩压和舒张压仍显著降低（p < 0.02；p < 0.01）。此外，在（BHG）组中观察到了个体对治疗反应的差异。
