There are currently 158 active clinical trials seeking participants for Hypertension research studies. The states with the highest number of trials for Hypertension participants are California, Florida, Texas and Ontario.
Stress and Blood Pressure Management for Caregivers
Recruiting
Due to health and wealth disparities, no demographic group is more at risk than African American women for the double jeopardy of stress from caregiving for persons living with dementia (PLWD) and stress associated with hypertension (HTN). This double jeopardy puts those they care for in jeopardy as well: Reduced quality of life and longevity, disability, cognitive decline, and stroke associated with HTN1 impede caregiving activities and resultant health and well-being for persons living with Al...

Black Impact: The Mechanisms Underlying Psychosocial Stress Reduction in a Cardiovascular Health Intervention
Recruiting
Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. Unfortunately, a paucity of literature exists on interventions aimed at improving CVH among Black men. The team of clinician scientist... Read More

Using MHealth to Improve Adherence and Reduce Blood Pressure in Individuals with Hypertension and Mood Disorders
Recruiting
This proposed 2-stage randomized controlled trial (RCT) will evaluate a personalized patient-centered adherence intervention iTAB-CV + Self-Monitoring (iTAB-CV + SM) vs. Self-Monitoring (SM) alone in poorly adherent hypertensive persons with BD or MDD. This practical, technology-facilitated intervention has potential to improve adherence to antihypertensive medication and reduce SBP among high-risk individuals. The intervention is suitable for primary care or mental health settings and has poten... Read More

Nutrition Outreach and Understanding: Research In Serving Hearts Through Healthy Eating And Tailored Support
Recruiting
This study is a human-centered, three-arm, parallel-group, randomized control, implementation trial (n=75) to compare MTM (Medically Tailored Meals) only (14 meals delivered weekly for 10 weeks) vs. MTM + SMA (Shared Medical Appointments; once weekly sessions for 10 weeks) vs. a wait-list control group (MTM-Later) in patients with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and/or metabolic syndrome. All intervention components will be culturally congruent (e.g., MTMs will include food that converge... Read More

OPtimizing Technology to Improve Medication Adherence and BP Control (OPTIMA-BP)
Recruiting
Hypertension (HTN) has a greater impact on African Americans (AA) than any other U.S. racial group. Uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) contributes to higher rates of disability, death, and health resource use among AA. HTN is the single most influential risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), as well as a risk factor for the incidence of stroke, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and dementia. Importantly, older adults account for 15% of the U.S. population, and two-thirds of older adults ove... Read More

Clinical and Molecular Characteristics of Primary Aldosteronism in Blacks
Recruiting
Background: The adrenal gland makes the hormone aldosterone. This helps regulate blood pressure. An adrenal gland tumor that makes too much aldosterone can cause high blood pressure and low potassium. The cause of these tumors is unknown, but sometimes they are inherited. Objective: To study the genes that may cause primary aldosteronism in Black individuals. Eligibility: People ages 18-70 who: Are Black, African American, or of Caribbean descent And have difficult to control blood pressu... Read More

Childhood-Onset Essential Hypertension Natural History Study
Recruiting
Background: Childhood-onset essential hypertension (COEH) is high blood pressure that develops in children and teens. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease. COEH is more likely to be caused by changes in genes rather than by factors like stress or diet. Researchers want to learn more about how changes in genes relate to COEH. They hope to use that information to develop better treatments for children with high blood pressure. Objective: This natural history study will l... Read More

Diabetes and Heart Disease Risk in Blacks
Recruiting
It is unknown if obesity contributes to the development of heart disease in African American men and women. This study was created to determine whether there is a relationship between sex and body size and the incidence of heart disease in African American men and women. Researchers will attempt to associate obesity with the presence of heart disease risk factors. Risk factors that will be studied include; total body fat, body fat distribution, fat content of the blood (triglyceride concentrati... Read More
