研究概览
简要总结
Individuals diagnosed with hypertension over a period of 1 year will be screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria and patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be recruited after providing informed consent. Demographic details and baseline vitals (heart rate, blood pressure, SpO,) will be recorded. Participants will then perform a 6-minute walk test (6MWT), during which outcome measures will be assessed pre-, during, and post-test. Total distance walked and perceived exertion (Borg scale) will also be noted. The Physiological Cost Index (PCI) will be calculated using the MacGregor’s Formula.
