Bedes venligst uddelt til alle medlemmer af

Kære medlem af Sundhedsudvalget,
Har I set denne artikel fra JACC? Der bør gives tilskud til
denne forebyggende og behandlende teknik:

AHA/ACC/AANP/AAPA/ABC/ACCP/ACPM/AGS/AMA/ASPC/N
MA/PCNA/SGIM Guideline for the Prevention, Detection,
Evaluation, and Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults:
A
Report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart
Association Joint Committee on Clinical Practice Guidelines
A comprehensive literature search was conducted from
December 2023 to June 2024 to identify clinical studies,
reviews, and other evidence performed on human subjects that
were published since February 2015 in English from MEDLINE
(through PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, the Agency
for Healthcare Research and Quality, and other selected
databases relevant to this guideline.

Man har gennemgået alle meditations teknikker og fundet
at Transcendental Meditation er den eneste meditations
teknik der har `moderat til high evidence´ til at sænke
forhøjet blodtryk. Mindfulness Meditation har
mindre/lavere evidence. Mindfulness er den teknik regioner
har godkendt og underviser deres personale i. Men der er

ikke så god dokumentation for at afhjælpe hypertension
som Transcendental Meditation. Læger bør henvise til
Transcendental Meditation for forebyggelse og behandling
af hypertension og
teknikken bør få tilskud fra Sygesikring
Danmark.
Indiens Maharishi Ayur-Veda er et multimodality
sundhedssystem som netop har sund kost, motion, træning,
meditation og dagsrutiner med som vigtige sundhedsråd,
som artiklen anbefaler.
Fra artiklen:
A number of stress-reduction strategies have been
assessed for their effect on BP lowering.
119
There is
consistent moderate- to high-level evidence from short-term
clinical trials that transcendental meditation can lower BP in
patients without and with hypertension, with mean
reductions of approximately 5/2 mm Hg in SBP/DBP.

Meditation appears to be somewhat less effective than BP-
lowering lifestyle interventions, such as the DASH eating
plan, structured exercise programs, or low-sodium/higher-
potassium intake.

The study designs and means of
teaching and practicing meditation interventions are
heterogeneous across trials, and trials have been of smaller
size and short duration, so further data would be beneficial.
Among other stress-reducing and mindfulness-based
interventions, data are less robust, and evidence is of lower
quality because of smaller, short-term trials with
heterogenous interventions and results.
There is moderate-
grade evidence that breathing control interventions lower
SBP/DBP by approximately 5/3 mm Hg in people with and

without hypertension.

There is also low- to moderate-
grade evidence that yoga of diverse types lowers BP.
