NCT06379750
The aim of our proposed program is to develop and implement a multilevel, multicomponent and health-financing intervention that will facilitate the scale up of evidence-based strategies to improve non-communicable diseases prevention, detection and control in Tanzania. The investigators will accomplish this by: 1) adapting two intervention components that are candidates for inclusion in a highly effective optimized strategy (called STOP-NCDs) and; (b) Assess their individual and combined effectiveness and 2) conducting a robust, mixed-methods evaluation of the implementation process and assess factors that may influence implementation and sustainability for delivering and scaling the optimized STOP-NCDs strategy. The investigators will select and/or adapt intervention components making up the optimized STOP-NCDs strategy. Using a hybrid clinical-effectiveness implementation design, the investigators will conduct a study in 2 sequential phases: 1) A clinical-effectiveness phase in which the investigators evaluate the effect of our combined strategies (task-sharing and WelTel) versus Usual Care, on rates of systolic BP reduction at 12 months; as well as other secondary outcomes including diagnosis and treatment of diabetes and, patient knowledge of CVD risks and prevention, and, other features of health provider NCD prevention activities. 2) A post-implementation phase in which the investigators use the RE-AIM framework to evaluate changes in the adoption and maintenance of our combined strategies in participating iCHF health facilities across Kilimanjaro region. The investigators will use the WelTel communication and Patient Management platform for to deliver culturally and contextually appropriate evidence-based text messaging to patients. It allows for quality improvement and is a unique tool for our program to scaling low-cost interventions that provide capabilities for tracking of health system service uptake, quality-metrics at health facilities, drug stock-out management, and patient-centered behavioral health interventions. Deployment of WelTel will allow for integration of NCD prevention targeted health services to all adult iCHF members across differing life stages and NCD risk and have a significant impact on increasing quality of care and sustainability of health financing and performance-based incentives through improved prescribing, patient engagement, medication adherence and healthy behaviour change.

NCT05707481
Diabetic-Hypertensives are at a higher risk of premature microvascular and macrovascular complications than diabetes alone. Proper lifestyle management, diet, disease monitoring, and medication adherence is essential in achieving desired therapeutic outcomes, preventing complications and improving those patients' Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). Pharmacists are the most accessible healthcare professionals to the public and have a crucial role in optimizing treatment outcomes in patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. Experimental trials' demonstrating the potential roles of pharmaceutical services is scarce in the literature, particularly in developing countries of south Asia. Therefore, the investigators plan to conduct a prospective-interventional trial to determine the potential impacts of pharmacist-supervised educational intervention on the management of "Type II diabetic with comorbid hypertension" patients. Patient data will be collected using patient's clinical profile forms, General Medication adherence Scale (GMAS), Patients Satisfaction towards pharmaceutical services (PSPSQ), Health Related-KAP questionnaires. Data will be verified, stored, entered into databases, and analyzed according to the data management plan. The findings will be compared in terms of clinical and nonclinical outcome measures between the control and test groups to ascertain the conclusion.
NCT06572397
The trial will evaluate the safety of one dose regimen of H-1337 \[1% twice daily (b.i.d.)\] in both eyes in healthy volunteers.
NCT05918120
Uncontrolled hypertension is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and mortality. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in hypertension and treatment using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been shown to effectively lower blood pressure. Despite its clinical significance, OSA remains underdiagnosed in patients with hypertension, because the current standard of care to diagnose OSA is in-laboratory polysomnography, which is inconvenient and often inaccessible for high-risk populations. An alternative to in-laboratory polysomnography is home sleep apnea testing, which has been validated against in-laboratory polysomnography and may be more convenient, accessible, and potentially cost-effective. The objective of this study is to compare home sleep apnea testing to in-laboratory polysomnography in a randomized controlled trial. The investigators will assess whether the use of home sleep apnea testing, compared to use of in-laboratory polysomnography, leads to higher rates of OSA diagnosis and treatment using CPAP, a reduction in blood pressure, improved sleep-related outcomes, and greater patient satisfaction among patients with hypertension at 6 months. The investigators will also assess whether home testing is cost-effective.
NCT05838846
This prospective open-label randomized study aims to compare the effect of inhaled versus intravenous milrinone on the pulmonary vascular resistance in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement surgery. The primary outcome is to determine change in pulmonary artery pressure. The secondary outcomes include, * Incidence of systemic hypotension. * Hemodynamic affection and need of vasopressors and inotropes. * Change in pulmonary vascular resistance versus systemic vascular resistance. * Right ventricular function. * Duration of mechanical ventilation. * Need for mechanical circulatory support devices. * Urine output * Length of intensive care (ICU) in stay. As the investigators hypothesize that inhaled milrinone has a selective pulmonary vasodilator effect devoid of the systemic hypotension with the intravenous administration.
NCT04720456
Early diagnosis of portal hypertension is difficult as symptoms rarely manifest until the later stages of liver disease. Both cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic portal hypertension can result in life-threatening complications, the most frequent of which is bleeding from esophageal varices. In children, variceal bleeds are associated with mortality rates of 1-3 %, while life-threatening complications have been reported in up to 20 % of children with cirrhosis. Despite the high incidence of portal hypertension in children with liver disease, a noninvasive modality to monitor disease progression and risk of complications is currently lacking. Hence, this trial will investigate the safety and efficacy of subharmonic aided pressure estimation (SHAPE) as a noninvasive ultrasound technique for diagnosing portal hypertension in children.
NCT00987025
The purpose of TEAhM is to determine if telehealth blood pressure stations can be installed and used in senior nutrition centers and to do a preliminary comparison of blood pressure outcomes among nutrition center clients who use the telehealth blood pressure stations compared to participants who do not use the stations. Specifically, the goals of the project are to determine if these monitors can be successfully implemented in this community-based setting, the degree to which older adults with hypertension are comfortable using the technology, and whether remote nurse monitoring of blood pressure using this technology is a feasible supplement to office-based care.
NCT06362382
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the effectiveness of remote home-based exercise rehabilitation using mobile Internet technology for patients with pulmonary hypertension,especically providing early and mid-term results of its effectiveness. The main questions it aims to answer are: Dose tele-rehabilitation training improves prognostic function and quality of life in patients with pulmonary hypertension? Researchers will compare tele-rehabilitation training group to a control group (receive health propaganda and education, and then follow their daily routine after discharge from the hospital) to see if tele-rehabilitation training works to improve prognosis. Participants will: During their stay in the hospital, the patients of tele-rehabilitation training group were accompanied by a rehabilitation trainer and a psychotherapist for a complete cycle of (7 days ± 3 days 1 week/times) standardized training. The scheme of rehabilitation is impedance training. A specialized professional team including cardiologists, rehabilitation trainers, psychotherapists and radiologists were involved. After discharge from the hospital, patients in the rehabilitation group underwent 3-5 weekly daily training sessions and intensive supervision and management by the online community at least once a week. Visit the clinic at the 3rd month of the study. Extended follow-up up to 6 months may be considered if patients are cooperative and could complete the training program in the first 3 months.
