Filter by:The six minutes stepper test (6MST) was used assess exercise capacity of individuals having different chronic conditions. In the literature, there are some validation studies analyzing validity of 6MST. In this study, the main aim was to analyse validation of 6MST in hypertensive individuals.
women with symptoms of preeclampsia from antenatal clinic or triage will be offered Lumella test along with traditional blood tests. If Lumella test is positive which will be compared with the traditional blood test results. Once 50 positive cases have been analysed the study results will be submitted to NICE.
To study the effect of SOT in patients with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH) who permanently live >2500m on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and other hemodynamics by echocardiography and in relation to blood gases at 2840m with and without SOT.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a ring-type blood pressure measurement device compared to a 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring device in patients with hypertension or suspected hypertension. The main question it aims to answer is whether the 24-hour blood pressure measurement accuracy of the ring-type blood pressure monitor is similar to that of the 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitor. To participate, subjects must wear a ring blood pressure monitor and an ambulatory blood pressure monitor simultaneously for 24 hours.
It has been suggested that Epicardial Adipose Tissue (EAT) may be an adjunctive marker to classical risk factors for the presence and severity of coronary artery disease. EAT thickness is also associated with MetS and hypertension, high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and insulin resistance.Studies have shown that moderate-intensity and high-intensity aerobic exercise and resistance exercise training reduce EAT. However, aerobic and resistance exercises may be found challenging and demanding by individuals and in most cases, high or moderate intensity exercise may be considered difficult. In a study conducted in physically inactive individuals, it was concluded that there was a significant increase in heart rate and BP following spinal stabilisation exercises performed 4 days a week for a total of 8 sessions for 2 weeks, but the increase in these cardiac parameters would tend to decrease following regular exercise. In the current literature, there is no study evaluating the effect of spinal stabilisation exercise on EAT thickness, exercise capacity and cardiovascular parameters in individuals with HT. Barriers to access to healthcare services such as distance, time and cost can be overcome with technology. COVID-19 has accelerated the transition of many physiotherapy services to telerehabilitation. Evidence has shown that telerehabilitation is an effective delivery model for providing face-to-face physiotherapy services with equal or even superior outcomes, especially in musculoskeletal treatment. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of spinal stabilisation exercise with telerehabilitation on EAT and exercise capacity in individuals with HT.
This study is open to adults with advanced liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C, alcohol-related liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis or other causes. People can join the study if they have high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver) and bleeding in the esophagus or fluid accumulation in the belly. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called avenciguat helps people with this condition. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes avenciguat tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like avenciguat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet twice a day for 8 weeks. Participants are in the study for 2 to 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site regularly. At 2 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in the liver vein by inserting a catheter (a long thin tube) that gives information about pressure in the portal vein. The change in blood pressure is then compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
to detect the incidence of CTEPH patients. Primary outcome To predict CETHP in symptomatic patients after pulmonary embolism episode. Secondary outcome: On Echocardiography revealed RV dysfunction which are peak TR Velocity , the RV/LV basal diameter ratio, flattening of the IVS, RV acceleration time and/or midsystolic notching, IVC diameter with decreased inspiratory collapse and RA area.
A retrospective multicenter study that will analyze the results of surgical treatment of obesity in patients over 65 years of age.
The goal of this hybrid type III study incorporating a cluster-randomized trial is to assess the effect of a community health worker-led hypertension prevention and control program (CHPC) on the implementation outcomes and clinical outcomes among patient with hypertension in central Nepal. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the level of implementation outcomes, including reach, adoption, implementation fidelity, and maintenance of the CHPC implementation strategy at the patient, provider, and health system levels? 2: What is the effectiveness of the CHPC implementation strategy compared to facility-based intervention on systolic BP via a cluster randomized controlled trial. 3: What is the implementation cost and cost-effectiveness of the CHPC implementation strategy? Participants will receive counseling and blood pressure monitoring services at their home every four months for a year by a community health worker. Researchers will compare if there is a significant difference in systolic blood pressure between those who receive this intervention and those who do not receive the intervention in the same community.
The HEARTS Technical Package was developed by the World Health Organization to address the implementation gap of cardiovascular disease prevention in low- and middle-income countries. Guatemala is a middle-income country that is currently implementing HEARTS. National authorities are interested in exploring how hypertension and diabetes management can be integrated in HEARTS implementation. The objective of this study is to conduct a feasibility and acceptability pilot trial of integrated hypertension and diabetes management based on HEARTS in the publicly funded primary care system in Guatemala.
