Filter by:The UK care home population is projected to increase significantly over the coming decades. A high proportion of individuals in a care home have multiple long-term conditions and take large amounts of prescribed medication. This means they are routinely excluded from research studies and so there is little evidence on which to base treatment of long-term conditions such as high blood pressure. Furthermore, given that 1 in 4 people admitted into a care home die within 1 year, the benefit of treating high blood pressure to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke must be balanced with the need to optimise quality of life. The aim of this study is to describe the health and social characteristics of the UK care home population with a particular focus on the management of blood pressure in the population. It is hoped that the findings of this study will help inform future research into the management of chronic conditions in care home residents.
This study is to confirm the long-term efficacy and safety of Rosuampin Tab. in patients with hypertension and hypercholesterolemia
The objective was to evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetic profiles and safety after administration of test drug (CKD-341) and reference drugs (D956) in healthy adults.
The BP Activate Study aims to assess the effectiveness of the BP Report letter with personalized BP medication recommendations, compared with Control letters and no intervention, at shortening time to appointment, time to visit, time to medication change, and time to achievement of BP goal.
To study the effect of relocation from 2840m (Quito) to sea level (Pedernales) 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.
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.
To study the effect of relocation from 2840m (Quito) to sea level (Pedernales) in patients with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH) who permanently live >2500m on sleep disordered breathing
Medicare Advantage beneficiaries ages 65-79 and insured by Humana with at least two unique fills of hypertension medication within the 2023 calendar year and adherence level between 60 and 85% will be identified using Humana Medicare Advantage claims data. Individuals meeting these inclusion criteria will be included and, with an institutional review board approved waiver of informed consent, will be randomized to one of 6 mailed messages or control (no message). The messages will be sent by Humana and use different behavioral techniques (social norms, messenger effects, and/or processing fluency) providing their medication refill score. Humana will send a second message within 60 days of the first message noting any changes in the refill score. The primary outcome will be the average end-of-year adherence in each arm. A secondary outcome will be the proportion of study participants with end-of-year adherence greater than or equal to 80%. The study team's hypothesis is that messages using dynamic social norms, messenger effects, and processing fluency in combination will more effectively increase average end-of-year adherence level compared to usual care. Humana will conduct all study participant outreach and data analyses, which will be performed using routinely collected insurance claims data. Regulatory oversight is conducted using Humana's centralized institutional review board (IRB) of record. The work completed by Humana study staff is funded by Humana, Inc. Dr. Choudhry and his colleagues (including subaward recipients ideas42 and Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth) will provide technical and subject matter expertise related to study research design and implementation, protocol design, statistical analysis, publication (abstract, poster, manuscript) preparation and/or review, and assistance throughout the peer review process including revisions and additional analyses if necessary for this project. The work completed by study staff at Brigham and Women's Hospital, ideas42, and Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth is funded by NIA.
