Filter by: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
The aim of this multi-country research project is to reduce the blood pressure of individuals with hypertension over a 12-month period in Bangladesh and Pakistan. A cluster randomized controlled trial (cRCT) will be conducted with two arms. The estimated sample size is around 3600 hypertensive adults. Bangladesh study participants will consist of 3600 hypertensive individuals. Approximately 10% of participants will be selected based on Bangladesh samples from Pakistan (360 hypertensive patients, four pharmacies). Community pharmacies will be randomised to one of two parallel groups (allocation ratio 1:1). Pharmacy professionals will provide educational training and counselling, as well as phone calls/mobile text messages and care coordination in the health sector as part of the intervention. The study will be conducted in three phases: baseline survey; intervention and follow-up; and endline survey with impact evaluation. The primary outcome will be BP reduction and the secondary outcomes will be BP controlled to target, treatment adherence, mortality or hospital admission rates resulting from hypertension and its related complications, incremental cost per quality-adjusted life year gained, improvement in knowledge on healthy lifestyle, change in dietary salt intake, and change in prevalence of current smokers.
This study seeks to evaluate whether a community-partnered, multi-level health system strategy to manage elevated blood pressure (BP) in the community, either with a medical model of remote BP management (RBPM) alone or RBPM plus a social model with a community health worker (CHW), is more effective in controlling hypertension than standard community screening and referral to primary care.
The primary aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of durian on thermic effect of food (TEF), blood pressure, heart rate and postprandial glucose and lipid levels in young healthy men and women, compared to the ingestion of isocaloric banana.
The purpose of this study is to verify the accuracy of the blood pressure cuffs with blood pressure monitor device. Cuff circumference is 13.5cm-19.5cm.
Background: In the management of hypertension lifestyle changes are recommended along with pharmacological treatment. Aims: This randomized controlled intervention study aimed to compare the effects of a Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet and a salt-free diet on blood pressure in hypertension patients. Methods: This study was conducted with 60 patients with primary hypertension. One group (n=30) was given an individualized DASH diet, the other group was given a salt-free diet (n=30), and the participants were followed for two months. The patients' blood pressures were monitored daily throughout the study, and their biochemical parameters were monitored at the beginning of the study, in the first and second months.
High blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and kidney disorders. Accurate blood pressure monitoring is crucial for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of complications related to high blood pressure. In recent years, due to the rapid development of wearable devices and mobile technology, wearable blood pressure monitors have gradually become a non-invasive and convenient method for blood pressure monitoring. However, the accuracy of these devices has not been fully established. This study aims to validate the performance of RadiHeart (an application program) in blood pressure measurement.
The aim of the study is to perform an experimental validation of the long-term accuracy of blood pressure measurement using the Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch
This study aims to assess the impact of the HEALS-Child action project on children's health in rural China. The goal of the project is to evaluate the effectiveness, feasibility, safety and cost-effectiveness of two salt reduction strategies: replacing usual salt with salt substitute in school meals, and replacing bowls with trays in school cafeteria. The study has two parts: the main study evaluates the salt substitute intervention, and the ancillary study evaluates the tray intervention. In the main study, over 16000 students from around 320 elementary or junior high school in rural China will be cluster-randomized into the two groups: 1. Salt substitute 2.usual salt. The primary outcome in the main study will be the change in systolic blood pressure. In the ancillary study, over 500 students from 10 elementary or junior high school will be cluster-randomized into the two groups: 1. meal trays 2.bowls. The primary outcome in the ancillary study will be the change in spot urine sodium. The interventions will last over 1 years. To evaluate the impact of interventions, 50 students were randomly selected from each school.
Introduction: Most cardiovascular diseases (CVD) can be prevented and controlled by adopting lifestyle changes, such as regular physical exercise and nutrition. Resveratrol and beverage extract promote beneficial health effects due to their nutritional properties. Objective: to analyze the effects of resveratrol supplementation and withdrawal extract on post-exercise recovery in coronary heart disease patients. Methods: men diagnosed with ischemic coronary artery disease will undergo four exercise protocols consisting of 30 minutes of aerobic exercise on an ergometric treadmill, with 5 minutes of warm-up, intensity of 30% of the heart rate reserve (HRR), followed by 25 minutes at intensity 60% of FCR and for a final 30 minutes of recovery in the supine position. Before each exercise protocol, all volunteers will consume: 500 mg of placebo (starch), or 500 mg of beetroot, or 500 mg of resveratrol and will also consume resveratrol and drink (500 mg each) 30 minutes before exercise. , the order of each supplementation will be done randomly. Cardiorespiratory parameters and heart rate variability (HRV) will be assessed at different times throughout the experimental procedure. To analyze the moments (rest versus recovery), the Bonferroni post-test will be used for parametric distribution or the Dunn post-test for non-parametric distribution. Statistical significance will be calculated at 5% for all analyses.
