Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

This is an open label, single dose (100 ng/day) study to assess the safety, tolerability and biodegradation of the PA5436 Latanoprost FA SR Ocular Implant in adults who have OAG or OHT.

This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). People can join this study if they have high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 685509 taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin helps people with this condition. Participants take BI 685509 as tablets twice a day for 8 weeks. Half of the participants with NASH who also have type 2 diabetes take empagliflozin as tablets once a day in addition to BI 685509. Participants are in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times. At 2 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein to see whether the treatment works. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

High blood pressure is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Traditionally, one of the ways to treat or prevent high blood pressure is to prescribe aerobic exercise training (i.e. brisk walking). Stretching may also be effective because it may cause changes in blood vessel stiffness and therefore reduce resistance to blood flow. The study will assess a group of individuals (i.e. 96) participating in a supervised stretching or walking program five days per week for six months to determine whether stretching is superior for reducing blood pressure. This research will contribute to recommendations about the most effective exercise programs for reducing blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular disease.

This study is to assess the safety and performance of the Neurotronic Infusion Catheter and ethanol denervation of renal and hepatic arteries for the treatment of patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM), Hypertension and Obesity.

The CATCH cluster randomized trial will test the implementation and effectiveness outcomes of implementing and scaling up a team-based care strategy for blood pressure control in Colombia and Jamaica.

This is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, open-label clinical study of the safety and performance of the TIVUS™ System in subjects with uncontrolled stage 2 hypertension in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of the TIVUS™ System when used for renal artery denervation. The study will assess the acute and chronic safety of the procedure as well as the reduction in 24-hour ambulatory mean systolic blood pressure from baseline to 3 months after the procedure.

To analyze the effects of altering the time of ingestion of participants' habitual medication (i.e., metformin, statins, ARAII/IACE) and meals around the time of exercise training (exercise fasted or fed) on the improvement of metabolic syndrome factors (hypertension, insulin sensitivity, dyslipidemia, and obesity). There will be a preliminary study of the effects of training "time-of-day" on the primary study outcomes.

Supine hypertension is a common problem that affects at least 50% of patients with primary autonomic failure. Supine hypertension can be severe and complicates the treatment of orthostatic hypotension. The purpose of this study is to assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) decreases blood pressure in autonomic failure patients with supine hypertension.

High blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular events, including stroke, heart and kidney failure. Typical anti-hypertensive drugs target vessels, the kidneys or the heart. Here we propose a randomized, placebo-controlled study to test the blood pressure-lowering effect of a probiotic in 110 patients with grade 1 hypertension. In addition, we will investigate glucose variability, fecal bacterial metabolome, peripheral blood effector T cell frequencies (%) and health-related quality of life.

This study evaluates the effect of slow and deep breathing on lowering blood pressure in women with pregnancy-induced hypertension. Slow and deep breathing will be practised daily for 10 minutes from enrolment until the woman gives birth. This feasibility study aims to investigate the practicality of conducting a proposed future randomised controlled trial.
