    Abstract:
    The authors report on the effect of a combined training programme decreasing blood pressure in male patients with essential hypertension (stage I and II) treated formerly not effectively with propranolol. Basis of the exercise treatment was the frequency of training which was established from the individual loading tests before the series of therapy. In three collectives of patients with hypertension of different age decreases of systolic as well as diastolic blood pressure could be ascertained statistically. With the help of the xenon-133 muscle clearance in most cases an improvement of the peripheral microcirculation could be proved. The mean functional vascular cross section (A) significantly increased under the training therapy.
