title: [Ergometry in the assessment of antihypertensive treatment (author's transl)].
abstract: A standardized ergometric test, suitable for recognizing abnormally high exercise blood pressures as well as the influence of hypotensive drugs on blood pressure, was employed in 13 of 28 hypertensives being treated with a combination of beta-receptor blockers (oxprenolol, 80 mg), a diuretic (chlortalidone, 10 mg), and a vasodilator (hydralazine, 25 mg). This combination was an effective antihypertensive measure with few side effects, particularly so in reducing elevated exercise blood pressures.
