Filter by:The purpose of this study is collect subject vitals with a blood pressure cuff, electrocardiogram (ECG), and photoplethysmogram (PPG). This data can then be used to develop a reliable, accurate, noninvasive, and continuous blood pressure monitoring device.
This study is an observational, non-randomized, study that will examine the variability in blood pressure (BP) response to intravenous (IV) vasoactive medications when BP is continuously sampled versus real-world BP sampling. Continuous BP sampling will be obtained using the Component Neuromonitoring System (CNS-200; Natus Corp) to obtain continuous data acquisition (CDA). The investigators will explore BP change based on electronic medical record (EMR) vs CNS-200 data. This study will consent and observe 30 Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit subjects using pragmatic sampling. Each subject will be observed one-and-only-one time for a 12-hour period.
This pilot project aims develop a need-based community stroke self-management program that would improve the stroke self-management self-efficacy and competencies among African American stroke survivors living in rural Alabama. This study is a mixed-methods study to collect data related to the needs of these individuals and develop a need-based intervention based on the actual needs/ preferences of our target population. The specific aims are to assess the needs, access barriers, existing resources for a stroke self-management program; and develop a Community Stroke Self-management Program for improving stroke survivors' abilities to manage their medication adherence, diet, Physical Activity (PA) requirements, symptoms, and psychological distress to better meet their needs, expectations, and preferences. Another aim is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of delivering the CSSP after tailoring the proposed intervention in Aim 2a) among the AA chronic stroke survivors living in rural Alabama.
TEAMS-BP is a Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI)-funded trial under the Phased Large Awards for Comparative Effectiveness Research (PLACER) funding mechanism to evaluate two comprehensive and evidence-based strategies for managing blood pressure (BP) following stroke.
This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) guided by a smartphone app vs. IMST delivered in a clinical research setting for lowering systolic blood pressure in adults 18 years and older with elevated blood pressure. Participants will perform IMST for 5 minutes a day, 6 days a week, for 6 weeks.
The goal of this intervention is to compare the blood pressure response of young females and males to a single bout of static handgrip exercise before and after static handgrip training (4 weeks). The main questions this study aims to answer are: - Are the lowering blood pressure effects of static handgrip exercise training different between young females and males? - Which factors explain the lowering blood pressure effects of static handgrip training and possible differences between sexes? Is it an improved blood vessel dilation? Is it a reduced stiffening of blood vessels? Is it a reduced fight or flight response resulting in a lower heart rate and blood pumped by the heart into the vessels? All the above? - Which factors regulate blood pressure response during and immediately after a single bout of static handgrip exercise? All participants will be asked to: - Visit the laboratory to perform static handgrip exercise - first visit; - Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to static handgrip exercise training or to a non-exercising phase, with each phase lasting four weeks. Participants will also complete the other condition (handgrip or no handgrip) after completing the first four-week condition - Return to the laboratory after the completion of both static handgrip training and no training to perform the static handgrip exercise of the first visit. The investigators will compare participants' blood pressure response to a single bout static of handgrip exercise after training to their own blood pressure response to the same bout of exercise after the non-training period.
This study aims to develop an automated and real-time non-contact vital sign measurement system using cameras. It will collaborate with physicians from National Taiwan University Hospital to conduct measurements during outpatient visits or hospitalizations. This allows physicians to non-invasively measure multiple vital signs (such as heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation) upon your entry to the outpatient clinic or hospital. Simultaneously, the measurements will be verified using commercially available contact-based instruments. The research outcomes of this project aim to enhance the convenience, safety, and comfort of vital sign measurements for outpatient visits, hospitalizations, and long-term care in the future.
In this study, the effect of music on arterial blood pressure, anxiety level, fetal heart rate and maternal-fetal attachment in pregnant women with gestational hypertension will be studied and it will be conducted as a randomized controlled intervention study to examine the relationships with each other. The sample group will consist of 90 pregnant women, 45 in the intervention group and 45 in the control group. Within the scope of the study, the data will be collected using the 'Personal Information Form, State-Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI TX-I)', Maternal-Fetal Attachment Scale (MFA) created by the researcher, and the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of each patient will be measured with a calibrated sphygmomanometer (the same sphygmomanometer was used for each patient), fetal heart rate (FHR) and fetal movements (FM) will be measured by Electronic Fetal Monitoring and Nonstress test (NST). Data will be analyzed using SPSS-25 package.
The investigators will study 500 patients with any indication for 24-hours Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM). In this study will compare Blood Pressure measurements with an original automatic device every 5 minutes during 20 minutes while the subject waits room for appointment, against ABPM results.
Blood pressure will be measured in min. 5/10/15 after birth. Cerebral tissue oxygenation (crSO2) monitoring with NIRS in addition to routine arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitoring with pulse oximetry will be performed continuously during the first 15 minutes after birth
