Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome of the study will focus on heart rate variability (HRV) parameters, specifically assessing MeanRR (s), SDNN (ms), RMSSD (ms), pNN50%, LF (n.u), HF (n.u), and LF/HF Ratio. These metrics will be evaluated to determine any changes before and after the administration of Lotus tea in patients with primary hypertension.Timepoint: Baseline and post intervention

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Blood pressureTimepoint: Baseline: Before the intervention begins. Week 1: Seven days after starting the intervention. Week 2: Fourteen days after starting the intervention. Week 3: Twenty-one days after starting the intervention. Week 4: Twenty-eight days after starting the intervention. Post-intervention: One week after completing the intervention.
