Abstract

Abstract

Introduction: Isometric exercise with handgrip has been reported as a strong ally in the fight against hypertension; however, there are other possibilities for the application of this intervention. Objectives: To map scientific studies on the use of isometric handgrip exercise, identifying the number of studies, the population studied, prescription strategies, outcomes and gaps for further research. Methods: This is a scoping review based on the steps proposed by the Preferred Report Items for Sytematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis - Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). The searches will take place in the following databases: Ovid Medline, Embrase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, SCOPUS, SPORTDiscus, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS) and JBI Evidence Synthesis and gray literature. The searches will be carried out using the keywords "Handgrip" AND "Isometric Exercise", accompanied by their synonyms, with no time or language restrictions. Two independent authors will conduct the searches and data extraction. The data will be recorded in a Microsoft Excel table and the results will be summarized in tables and graphs. Ethics and dissemination: No ethical approval is required for the review. The results will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal and presented at academic conferences. Registration: The scoping review has been registered with the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/zdesu).
