Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the effect improved access to culturally-appropriate fruits/vegetables has on cardiometabolic markers, specifically systolic blood pressure and markers of adiposity in immigrant Hispanic/Latinx individuals with hypertension and obesity. The secondary aim is to determine compliance to the increased F/V intake recommended by the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) Diet by assessing changes in skin carotenoid status. The main question it aims to answer is whether consuming 8-10 servings of culturally-appropriate, carotenoid-containing F/V daily for 4 weeks to meet the requirements of the DASH Diet supported by diet and lifestyle education will result in reductions in systolic BP and decreased markers of adiposity (body weight, Body Mass Index, and waist circumference).

The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of sotatercept over 24 weeks of treatment in children ≥1 to <18 years of age with PAH World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1 on standard of care (SoC). There is no formal hypothesis.

The purpose of this investigator-initiated randomized control trial is to determine whether oral Nifedipine versus oral Labetalol is superior in controlling high blood pressures in the postpartum period.

The purpose of this 20-week randomized double-blind study in patients with resistant hypertension (rHTN) is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability, of different doses of XXB750 administered as subcutaneous (SC) injections, compared to placebo. Since all study participants will be patients with rHTN, all study treatments will be given on top of maximally tolerated background antihypertensive therapy recommended by international guidelines for treatment of HTN (i.e., a thiazide or a thiazide-like diuretic, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and a long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB).

This study will examine the effects of 4 months of aerobic interval training versus continuous aerobic training on ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) and novel plasma protein biomarkers in patients with resistant hypertension. In addition, we will measure ABP after a training cessation period of 3 months (i.e., 7 months follow-up). A randomized controlled trial will be performed including two exercise groups and a control group: a) moderate-intensity interval training (MIIT); b) moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT); c) usual care. MIIT could represent a superior training modality that exceeds the benefits of MICT in patients with resistant hypertension.

This study is a prospective, double blind, self-controlled, randomized, cross-over study to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of treating patients with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) associated with hypertension using the PressurePace™ system of Right Atrial Pacing regulated by blood pressure in subjects with dual chamber pacemakers. The objective of this study is to show that blood pressure-controlled right atrial pacing improves exercise tolerance, improves heart failure symptoms, and improves hypertension control in subjects with HFpEF associated with hypertension compared to conventional bradycardia pacing alone.

The investigators hypothesize that communities in which religious leaders are provided with education about blood pressure and how to measure blood pressure will have lower overall average blood pressures than communities in which religious leaders do not receive education about blood pressure.

This study is assess the safety and performance of the Neurotronic Infusion catheter for treatment of patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) and hypertension.

The primary aim of the study is to assess the antihypertensive efficacy of SPH3127 in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension.

This is a pilot randomized controlled trial which will test the effect of 3 different anti-hypertensive agents and 3 different strategies of engaging young adults in home blood pressure monitoring on blood pressure control, with secondary outcomes focused on quality of life and adverse events.
