NCT ID: NCT05728723 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

The Effectiveness of the Android Application as a Pharmaceutical Education Tool in Hypertensive Patients

Start date: March 16, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hypertension is a worldwide public health challenge due to its high prevalence and along with increased risk of complications of other diseases that are more dangerous if not managed properly. An estimated 1.4 billion people worldwide have high blood pressure, but only 14% can control it. Knowledge of hypertension in patients with hypertension can prevent complications through hypertension treatment. Increasing knowledge can be done by providing education in the form of counseling by pharmacists to hypertensive patients. Counseling activities carried out by pharmacists can be supported by a technological approach. One of the uses in smartphone technology is by creating an android-based mobile application that can be developed to support pharmaceutical care. Education conducted by pharmacists can increase knowledge that will affect hypertension treatment adherence, and this education can also improve blood pressure control so that it can improve the quality of life. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of the android application as a standard pharmacist education tool on knowledge as well as adherence and therapeutic outcomes of hypertensive patients, and quality of life related to the health of hypertensive patients compared to just providing standard education by pharmacists to hypertensive patients at the Primary Health Care. The method used in this study is a Quasi-Experimental with Pretest - Posttest Control Group Design. Samples were obtained by purposive sampling method at the selected Primary Health Care as the intervention group and the selected Primary Health Care as the control group. Pharmacist provides education to intervention groups with android applications as counseling aids and in control groups only standard counseling is provided. Pre-test data collection was done by taking primary and secondary data of patients at the first meeting and post-test data collection was taken prospectively through face-to-face interviews and questionnaires on hypertensive patients participants for three months by observing the influence of android applications as counseling aids on knowledge of hypertensive diseases, adherence to antihypertensive treatment, outcome therapy and quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT05722626 Completed - Clinical trials for Osteoarthritis, Knee

The aims of study to determine the effect of giving functional bread and dadih's vla on weight gain of pregnant women and birth weight of babies.

NCT ID: NCT05708690 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Topical Effect of Tranexamic Acid in Postoperative Bleeding and Blood Products Transfusion After Cardiac Surgery

Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This is a single-center, double-blind, randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing two groups of application of topical dose of tranexamic acid (TxA) versus placebo in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), off pump coronary bypass graft cardiac surgery (OPCAB), and adult heart valve surgery. The primary outcomes of this study comprised of two parameters; post operative bleeding and blood product transfusion. The primary outcomes were assessed during the operation, until 48-hour post operative.

NCT ID: NCT05703438 Completed - Clinical trials for Metabolic Syndrome, Protection Against

The Effect of a Low-calorie Diet With Balanced Nutrition on Metabolic Syndrome

Start date: August 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study looked at how a nutritionally balanced low-calorie diet based on traditional Indonesian foods affected obese people's metabolic biomarkers. The traditional Indonesian foods presented here are Minangkabau cuisine. Body mass index, waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, body fat mass percentage, fasting blood sugar levels, and lipid profiles are among the metabolic biomarkers measured. The provision of a balanced nutritionally low-calorie diet based on traditional Indonesian foods, according to the researchers, will have a significant effect on the metabolic biomarkers of obese people.

Start date: September 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study aimed to evaluate the combined effects of cyclosporine and remote ischemic preconditioning on MDA, calcium cytosol concentration, and mitochondrial edema in tetralogy Fallot patients undergoing corrective surgery.

NCT ID: NCT05685017 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Adiponectin, ICAM-1, VCAM-1 Levels and Metabolic Syndrome in Obese Adolescents

ICAM; VCAM
Start date: October 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Adipose tissue secreting a number of adipokines which regulate insulin sensitivity, energy metabolism and vascular homeostasis, so the dysfunction of adipose tissue is linked with the incidence of obesity accompanied with insulin resistance, hypertension and cardiovascular disease (1). Obesity is known to alters the expression of adipokines due to the adipose tissue hypertrophy (2), including adiponectin, in which able to exert a potent anti-inflammatory and vascular protective effect (2). It has been proposed that adiponectin acts to prevent the vascular dysfunction due to obesity and diabetes by improves insulin sensitivity and metabolic profiles to reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease and protects the vasculature through its pleiotropic actions on endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells, smooth muscle cells and macrophages (1). The concentrations of adiponectin of 5 to 25 mg/mL had a significant inhibitory effect on the expression of monocyte adhesion and adhesion molecule induced by TNF-α in vitro. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease in which adhesion molecules on arterial endothelial cells are responsible for the accumulation of monocytes/macrophages and T lymphocytes. While obesity is low-grade inflammation in which make a contribution on endothelial dysfunction by increasing the oxygen-derived free radicals (ROS) due to adipocyte hypertrophy, leads to an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and mitochondrial dysfunction (3). Adiponectin is accumulated in the vasculature, and it reduced on obesity due to suppression by TNF-α and lead to adiponectin-deficiency which stimulate the significant increases of Vascular cell adhesion protein 1 (VCAM-1) and Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1) or known as CD54 in aortic intima (4). Here we investigate the level of adiponectin, ICAM-1, VCAM-1 with the incidence of MetS in obese adolescents.
