Filter by:A study of Staying Healthy After Childbirth (STAC) and My Hypertension Education And Reaching Target (MyHEART) for postpartum (p) patients to determine if health coaching can increase 12-month postpartum care attendance, hypertension control and hypertension self-management behavior compared to usual clinical care in patients with chronic hypertension or persistent pregnancy associated hypertension - postpartum. 140 participants will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for 12 months.
ComBaCaL aHT TwiC 1 and aHT TwiC 2 are two cluster-randomized controlled trials that are identical in intervention, design and endpoints. TwiC 1 enrols individuals with uncomplicated aHT with baseline BP values above treatment targets and the hypothesis is that in intervention clusters where community-based treatment is offered, a higher proportion will have controlled aHT at twelve months' follow-up as compared to control clusters where participants are referred to the facility for further care after diagnosis. TwiC 2 enrols individuals with uncomplicated pharmacologically controlled aHT with the hypothesis that the offer of community-based antihypertensive treatment is non-inferior to facility-based care with regard to BP control rates at twelve months. The trials are nested within the ComBaCaL (Community-Based Chronic disease care Lesotho) cohort study (EKNZ ID 2022-00058, clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT05596773), a platform for the investigation of chronic diseases and their management in rural Lesotho that is maintained by local chronic care village health workers (CC-VHWs). 50% of the villages being part of the overarching ComBaCaL cohort will be randomly allocated to receive the TwiC intervention. The non-selected villages will serve as comparators and follow the regular ComBaCaL cohort activities conducted by CC-VHWs, including screening, diagnosis, standardized counselling and referral to a health facility for further therapeutic management. The TwiC intervention will be offered to all eligible people living with aHT in the sampled intervention villages. Individuals with uncomplicated uncontrolled and uncomplicated controlled aHT at baseline will be enrolled in aHT TwiC 1 and aHT 2 respectively. In case of complicated disease, unclear diagnosis, or presence of clinical alarm signs or symptoms, participants will be referred to the closest health facility for further investigation.
The purpose of this study is to understand more about why young people who were born to a hypertensive pregnancy may have increased risk of high blood pressure and are often at increased risk of heart and blood vessel disease later in life.
Examine the efficacy of satralizumab in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) with immune-responsive phenotype serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) ≥ 2.73 pg/mL who have an inadequate response to existing drugs.
The primary goal of this observational study is to learn about postpartum pulmonary artery pressure in women who suffered from Preeclampsia and Antiphospholipid Syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is whether the conjunction of preeclampsia with obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome significantly foster the development of long-lasting pulmonary hypertension. Only participants who suffered from preeclampsia during pregnancy will be followed for a period up to 3 years postpartum. Researchers will compare women with or without obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome.
The Achieve Trial is a randomized clinical trial to test whether lowering blood pressure to less than 140/90 mmHg in women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy will prolong pregnancy.
This research will implement a novel habit formation intervention among people living with hypertension and an indication of medication non-adherence to help maintain high anti-hypertensive (AH) medication adherence by leveraging the power of routines and unconsciously triggered habitual behaviors. The investigators will test whether high AH medication adherence can be maintained using contextually-cued medication adherence habits that mitigate the negative effects of declining motivation, forgetfulness, and the cognitive burden of performing repeated daily behaviors. The use of mHealth tools will help to make this a scalable and sustainable intervention approach for addressing an important healthcare issue in Arizona.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about heart function and high lung blood pressure in patients with heart failure. The main question[s] it aims to answer are whether we can improve the ability to predict patients who will have complications after they receive treatment including heart transplant and left ventricular assist devices.
The goal of this study is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of a novel family-based hypertension self-management intervention, Walk Together, adapted from an existing empirically-supported dyadic intervention, for implementation in primary care.
The RECONNECTIVE Registry is an observational single center study, focused on the subgroup of precapillary pulmonary hypertension related to connective tissue diseases. All patients will have hemodynamic confirmation by right heart catheterization and will be follow-up for at least 5 years from admission. All patients diagnosed with Group I Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) associated with Connective Tissue Diseases (CTD) and Group IV Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) with CTD will be included. The purpose of the registry is to learn and understand the clinical outcomes and natural history of the pulmonary arterial hypertension in this subgroup of patients to improve the medical care and treatment.
