Filter by:Pregnancy related hypertension is one of the most prevalent obstetric complications. The aim of the study is to evaluate the validity and sensitivity of OCT angiography in prediction of pregnancy induced hypertensive disorders in comparison to maternal doppler in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy
This project is part of the ACHIEVE GREATER (Addressing Cardiometabolic Health Inequities by Early PreVEntion in the GREAT LakEs Region) Center (IRB 100221MP2A), the purpose of which is to reduce cardiometabolic health disparities and downstream Black-White lifespan inequality in two cities: Detroit, Michigan, and Cleveland, Ohio. The ACHIEVE GREATER Center will involve three separate but related projects that aim to mitigate health disparities in risk factor control for three chronic conditions, hypertension (HTN, Project 1), heart failure (HF, Project 2) and coronary heart disease (CHD, Project 3), which drive downstream lifespan inequality. All three projects will involve the use of Community Health Workers (CHWs) to deliver an evidence-based practice intervention program called PAL2. All three projects will also utilize the PAL2 Implementation Intervention (PAL2-II), which is a set of structured training and evaluation strategies designed to optimize CHW competence and adherence (i.e., fidelity) to the PAL2 intervention program. The present study is Project 2 of the ACHIEVE GREATER Center.
PVRI-GoDeep is a PH Meta-Registry, run under the umbrella of the Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute (PVRI). It merges anonymized PH patient related data from various local registries around the world run under the responsibility of PVRI members. It will be operated under the auspices of the University of Giessen/Giessen PH center. Combining deep phenotyping with worldwide outreach, PVRI-GoDeep aims to offer insights into specific geographical and ethnical profiles of PH, to deepen the epidemiological, clinical and molecular understanding of this disease and to promote strategies for improved individualized treatment of PH patients.
To assess intraocular pressure changes among glaucoma patients on systemic antihypertensive and antihistaminic drugs.
To compare the antihypertensive effect of renal denervation with the Paradise™ system with that of a sham procedure in hypertensive patients receiving two antihypertensive drugs at the time of consent, and treated with a duo combination antihypertensive pill.
A randomized clinical trials with cross-over design to evaluate changes in blood pressure, renal function (creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration), LDL and HDL-cholesterol after taking antihypertensive drugs in the morning or at bedtime. Blood pressure will be estimated by ambulatory blood pressure measurements. There will be a shift in time of drug intake after 8 weeks for each participant. Approximately 100 individuals aged 40-75 years and on stable anti-hypertensive treatment and blood pressure <150/95 mm Hg will be recruited. No new drugs will be introduced during the study.
The LINKED- HEARTS Program is a multi-level project that intervenes at the practice level by linking home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) with a telemonitoring platform (Sphygmo). The program incorporates team-based care by including community health workers (CHWs) and pharmacists to improve the outcomes of multiple chronic conditions (reduced blood pressure (BP), lower blood sugar, and improved kidney function). The LINKED-HEARTS Program will recruit a total of 600 adults with uncontrolled hypertension (BP ≥ 140/90 mm Hg) AND either type 2 diabetes or chronic kidney disease (CKD) across 16 community health centers or primary care practices serving high-risk adults. This cluster-randomized trial consists of two arms: (1) enhanced "usual care arm," wherein patients will be provided with Omron 10 series home BP monitors and will be managed by the patients' primary care clinicians as usual; and (2) the "intervention arm" which will integrate HBPM telemonitoring, a CHW intervention and provider-level interventions into the usual clinical care to improve BP control and provide support for self-management of chronic conditions. The study pharmacist will conduct telehealth, use the Sphygmo app and the Pharmacist Patient Care Process to collaborate with other providers to optimize pharmacologic therapy to improve hypertension outcomes and with payors to ensure consistent access to drug therapy.
We will study obese hypertensive subjects in a randomized, crossover study to determine if two weeks sympathetic blockade improves endogenous glucose production. Subjects will be studied on 3 different occasions after two weeks of receiving either placebo, amlodipine (vasodilator arm) or moxonidine (study arm). The order of the studies will be determined using computer-generated randomization. Patients will be blinded as to which treatment they are receiving on each day. An investigator blinded to the treatment assignment will perform the analysis of the data.
The Change Database is a prospective, observational multi-center disease registry, which will collect data on patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in China. It aims to illustrate the epidemiology, management and long-term outcomes of CTEPH.
Randomized trial comparing risk of hospital readmission and hypertensive complications between patients managed on Labetalol compared to Nifedipine.
