Filter by:Purpose of the study This study will be conducted to investigate any significant effect of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization training on postural control in patients with essential hypertension.
In this study, a wristband that monitors hearth rhythm and blood pressure is assessed in free living conditions. Two groups of patients are being recruited: patients receiving an EKG holter and patients receiving an automatic blood pressure monitor. Patients wear the wristband for 28 days. During this time, the number of atrial fibrillation episodes detected by the wristband is being counted, which is to be compared with the number of episodes detected by the holter. Also, blood pressure is measured continuously, which is to be compared with daily blood pressure measurements using a conventional blood pressure cuff.
This study was planned to assess the concentration of antihypertensive drugs in the blood plasma in patients with controlled and uncontrolled arterial hypertension. Methods: it is planned to include patients with arterial hypertension taking 3 antihypertensive drugs (indapanide, lisinopril or valsartan, amlodipine). Based on the results of 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, the patients will be randomized into two groups: The first group - the patients with controlled AH; The second group - the patients with uncontrolled AH. Venous blood was taken in both groups of the patients in the morning before and 2 hours after taking drugs to assess the concentration of lisinopril, amlodipine, valsartan and indapamide. Concentation of assesed antihypertensive drugs will be compared in both groups.
Brief Summary: The study was conducted in two parts, the first of which was carried out using a cross-sectional design approach to explore the relationship between cognitive function and autonomic function, brain function, inflammation and oxidative stress, vascular function, fitness levels, cardiorespiratory endurance and lipid metabolism. The second part uses a repeated measures design approach in a randomised controlled design to explore the effects of different types of exercise on cognitive decline in postmenopausal hypertensive women and their mechanisms of action.
1. Primary outcome: To evaluate the dose response effects of watermelon flesh in regulating Blood Pressure (BP) in individuals with pre-hypertension. 2. Secondary outcomes: To study the dose-response effects of watermelon flesh intake on cardio-metabolic risk factors including plasma metabolic markers, lipid profile and nitrate/nitrite levels in individuals with pre-hypertension.
African American adults in the United States have the highest prevalence rate of high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure in the world. African Americans with treatment resistant hypertension have higher levels of the enzyme - xanthine oxidase compared to Caucasians. This trial will test if administration of the xanthine oxidase inhibitor - Allopurinol (commonly used in the treatment of gout), given over a period of 8 weeks, will improve heart function, exercise ability and quality of life in African American Veterans with resistant hypertension.
The goal of this research is to determine whether a theory-informed implementation strategy is successful at increasing the uptake of a supported home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) program as well as to determine the effectiveness of this evidence-based practice when implemented across multiple practices serving a diverse patient population.
The investigators primary project goal is to improve clinical outcomes, including mental health outcomes, among postpartum at-risk women experiencing health disparities by increasing awareness, detection, and timely care of postpartum hypertension, mental health and cardiovascular complications. The investigators will accomplish this by comparing the effectiveness of two multi-component multi-level healthcare delivery models focused on early detection and control of postpartum hypertension and the social and mental health factors known to impact maternal outcomes, with the current standard of care and with each other.
The purpose of this study is observe outcomes before and after a change in clinical practice in the threshold for management of severe hypertension in pregnancy and the post-partum period. Outcomes will be observed for 10 months under the current (traditional) clinical blood pressure threshold for acute treatment of hypertension, which is >= 160 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) systolic blood pressure (SBP). This will be followed by one month of education about rationale for the new SBP threshold of >= 180 mmHg and change of clinical guidelines. Then, there will be 10 months of observation after adopting the updated clinical threshold for acute antihypertensive treatment (>= 180 SBP).
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BR1015 Combination therapy group in comparison with Fimasartan monotherapy group at Week 8 for essential hypertension patients who do not adequately responded by Fimasartan 30 mg
