Filter by:This study aims to investigate the exercise profile in pulmonary hypertension patients with either pulmonary arterial hypertension, chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension or pulmonary hypertension due to left heart disease and in disease control.
Social distancing measures put in place to combat the COVID-19 disease pandemic may increase social isolation and impact cardiovascular disease prevention behaviors among people living with HIV (PLWH). This study builds on a previously developed nurse-led intervention to improve blood pressure and cholesterol care for PLWH. The investigators will adapt the intervention to be administered virtually in order to facilitate cardiovascular prevention care within the US health care system which has sustained long-term changes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The implementation and effectiveness of the intervention will be tested in a 12-month single arm intervention study.
A Clinical Trial to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of CKD-348
This non-interventional, ambispective study was aimed at evaluating the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of bisoprolol and perindopril SPC in previous myocardial infarction patients with HTN and CAD treated with the drug for 12 weeks in the daily clinical practice. SPC will be used according to the approved instruction for medical use of the medicine. This is a multi-centre, observational, incomparative, ambispective study, which will retrospectively and prospectively collect clinical variables and socio-demographic data from medical records of patients with HTN and previous MI initiated with bisoprolol/perindopril SPC in real life settings.
The goal of the parent R01 study has been to determine how beliefs about chronic illness and their treatments affect SMB in the context of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with comorbid hypertension (HTN) and or diabetes (DM). The educational counseling modules the study team plans to pilot test are rooted in the Self-Regulation Model (SRM), a theory of health behaviors that has been used to develop interventions, but has only been applied to research on behaviors around single diseases.
Background: Office blood pressure (OBP) is used for diagnosing and treating hypertension but ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) associates more accurately with patient outcome. The optimal blood pressure in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is still unknown. Our objective was to investigate whether physician awareness of ABP after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improved BP-control. Methods: A total of 201 patients performed ABPM before and after their PCI follow-up visit. Patients were randomized to open (O) or concealed (C) ABPM results for the physician at the follow-up visit. The change in ABP and antihypertensive medication in relation to baseline ABP was compared between the two groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Apixaban, Warfarin and Aspirin Anticoagulation are effective and safe in Prevention of Portal Vein Thrombosis in Liver Cirrhotic Patients after Laparoscopic Splenectomy
The Telehealth After Stroke Care (TASC) trial is a pilot randomized controlled trial. It aims to evaluate the feasibility of a telehealth based model providing multidisciplinary access including nursing, pharmacy and physician care, and obtain preliminary evidence of efficacy of an integrated telehealth approach to blood pressure management after stroke.
Women who had an adverse pregnancy outcome (APO), such as preeclampsia, preterm birth, or gestational diabetes, have a higher risk for heart disease. Some of the extra risk for heart disease after APOs is thought to be caused by inflammation. Investigators will randomize women who had an APO in the past 3 years to receive an anti-inflammatory supplement or serve as a time control. Investigators will compare blood pressure, arterial stiffness, blood vessel reactivity, and blood markers of inflammation between women who did and did not receive the supplement. Investigators will determine women's attitudes about taking a dietary supplement and measure whether the participants who receive the supplement take all or most of the doses.
