Background: The disease burden of hypertension(HTN) and type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM) is rising rapidly in China.Comprehensive interventions(Implementation strategies for providers and interventions for patients) are critical to strengthen primary health care systems and address the burden of multiple comorbidities. In order to promote equal access to health services and narrow the gap in population health, China has launched the national Essential Public Health Services Equity Programme (EPHSEP) nationwide. EPHSEP contains guidelines for health management services for HTN and type 2 DM. The program has been in operation for 10 years. However, the management of HTN and type 2 DM in China is far from satisfactory. The purpose of this study is to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM, investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards, propose feasible implementation strategies,implement in certain areas,and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies. Methods: Based on previous work,four community health service centres and four township health centres will be selected in West Coast District of Qingdao city of Shandong province,Suzhou City of Jiangsu province, Changsha city of Hunan province and Luohe city of Henan Province.In each of the four provinces,one community health service center and one township health center will be selected.Two community health service centres and two township health centres will be selected as the intervention groups, and the other community health service centres and township health centres will be selected as the control groups. The study will be divided into three phases: Phase 1, 2 and 3. Phase 1 and phase 2 cross-sectional studies are the basis for phase 3 intervention studies. Phase 1 will be conducted from March 2022 to April 2022.In phase 1, a quantitative questionnaire survey will be conducted among 5464 HTN and 7040 type 2 DM patients in 8 community health service centers to obtain the data of awareness rate, screening rate, diagnosis rate, treatment rate, control rate and management service of hypertension and type 2 diabetes patients,so as to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM. Phase 2 will be conducted in April 2022. In phase 2, about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services and 80 patients with HTN and type 2 DM in 8 community health service centers will be investigated through qualitative interviews,so as to investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards and to propose feasible implementation strategies. Phase 3 will be conducted a mixed-methods type 2 hybrid effectiveness-implementation study from May 2022 to January 2023. Interventions are divided into four levels through a cascading model of screening, diagnosis, treatment, and control. Implementation strategies are divided into 6 categories according to Implementation Mapping: Capacity-building strategies（Recruit, designate, and train for leadership; Work with educational institutions), Supervision(Provide clinical supervision), Integration strategies(Remind clinicians; Use data warehousing techniques), Implementation process Strategies(Identify and prepare champions; Identify early adopters; Inform local opinion leaders; Involve patients/consumers and family members; Obtain and use patients/consumers and family feedback), Dissemination strategies(Make training dynamic), Scale-up strategies(Use train-the-trainer strategies;Place innovation on fee for service lists/formularies). We will adopt between site design to select 4（2*2 ）community health service centers and 4（2*2）township health centers, among which 2 community health service centers and 2 township health centers will implement the strategy, while the other selected sites will not implement the strategy. The 2*2 community health service centers and 2*2 township health centers will be divided into group matching control and self pre- and post-control. In phase 3, 2280 patients with HTN and 2656 patients with type 2 DM will be surveyed by quantitative questionnaire, and about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services will be surveyed by qualitative interview. This is to implement improved implementation strategies and to assess the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies.
This is a pilot, crossover trial in which the investigator will determine if retiming of one anti-hypertensive medication from morning to evening can effectuate normal blood pressure dipping patterns in children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease.
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label clinical trial intended to evaluate the safety and benefit of the MobiusHD® system in renal hemodialysis subjects with uncontrolled hypertension.
Losartan is an antihypertensive drug belonging to the ARB family. It is characterized as the substrate of the Multi Drug Resistance-1 (MDR1) drug-efflux protein (a pump that ensures the removal of drugs/foreign substances out of the cell) encoded by the ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 1 (ABCB1) gene. A recent line of evidence indicates that potential polymorphisms in this gene tend to alter the absorption, transport, bioavailability of losartan, and, indirectly, its effectiveness in hypertension control. As identified by new research, the C3435T, G2677T, and C1236T polymorphic alleles of the MDR1 gene might alter the bioavailability and thus the effectiveness of losartan
The problem of adherence to long-term therapies has been known for years and occurs substantially in all countries, although with greater severity in developing countries. The investigators designed a prospective open study in which 200 patients followed for hypertension at the centers of the Italian Society of Hypertension (SIIA) adhering to the project will be evaluated on the basis of their clinical characteristics, the presence of comorbidities and the therapeutic scheme in place and will be subjected to hair sampling for the analysis of drugs of interest and their possible metabolites in this matrix. The use of the prescribed drugs is recorded along with the relevant clinical parameters and preliminarily evaluated by application of a questionnaire. At the first visit, patients who have been prescribed continuously in the 3 months preceding the study the same active ingredients will be invited to participate in the study, which involves a hair sampling. They will then be prescribed the same active ingredients according to the same scheme if the blood pressure values are within the recommended limits. When more than one antihypertensive drug is present in the therapeutic scheme, they will be prescribed in a single pill, as recommended. For patients with uncontrolled blood pressure, the therapeutic scheme will be modified with the inclusion of other active ingredients and using drug combinations when possible. Patients treated with statins will continue the treatment according to clinical indication using associations with antihypertensive drugs. Patients will be examined and re-tested 3-4 months after the first visit. The use of prescribed medications will be recorded along with clinical parameters of interest and preliminarily evaluated by application of questionnaires. At each of the two visits, the investigating physician will measure blood pressure using a semi-automatic device The 24-hour blood pressure monitoring will be used. Hair extraction ad UHPLC-QQQ/MS analysis will be performed. Concentrations of active ingredient and any metabolites in the keratin matrix are expressed in ng or fractions of ng/mg.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) has significant associated morbidity and reduced quality of life. There is a significant risk of visual loss and patients also typically suffer with chronic disabling headaches. This trial has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new formulation of exenatide (Presendin) in the reduction of intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with IIH.
