NCT00412113
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether an aggressive multi-risk factor management strategy (Caduet plus therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) regimen) will result in greater percentage of patients achieving blood pressure and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals compared with a Joint National Committee 7/ National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (JNC 7/NCEP ATP III) guideline-based approach (Norvasc plus TLC regimen) after 6 weeks of treatment in primary prevention subjects with hypertension and additional risk factors, including dyslipidemia.
NCT00979732
In this research study, the investigators are interested in learning how extracts from grape seeds can help those individuals with high blood pressure. The investigators also hope to learn how grape seed extract effects your blood and cell functions. The grape seed extract the investigators will use in the study will be provided either in a beverage or a capsule form and is currently available on the market. This study is also using a placebo; therefore the treatment subjects receive may or may not contain the grape seed extract. The purpose of this study is to determine if the grape seed extract (GSE) will lower blood pressure in people with slightly high blood pressure (Pre-Hypertension).
NCT00415623
The changes in the trough systolic blood pressure from the baseline were assessed after 8 weeks of double-blind treatment with amlodipine 10 mg or amlodipine 5 mg
NCT03947996
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). Previous studies have shown that stretching is also very effective for reducing blood pressure. This is an exciting possibility because if stretching is more effective, it would change the way exercise is prescribed to people with elevated blood pressure. This study will now assess 20 individuals in a supervised stretching or walking program five days per week for 8 weeks to determine for certain 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.

NCT03726710
The recently published LA Barbershop in the New England Journal of Medicine (Victor et al. N Engl J Med 2018; 378: 1291-301) solid evidence of the efficacy of a pharmacist-led medication management intervention to reduce blood pressure in black men that patronize barbershops. One of the most significant logistical inefficiencies of the LA Barbershop Study was the amount of time the pharmacists spent driving for face-to-face visits with participants. On average, each round trip was 40 miles and pharmacists drove 2 hours per day. By using telemedicine, the study team can minimize the number of face-to-face in-person visits and increase pharmacist efficiency by 25%. the study team aim to increase the scalability of our novel, evidence-based barbershop model by addressing this inefficiency with the pilot study. In the LA Barbershop trial, each participant averaged 7 in-person visits in 6 months. the study team found that the initial in-person visits between the pharmacist, barber, and patron were essential for establishing trust as well as obtaining baseline electrolyte and serum creatinine levels (with our validated point-of-care device, iSTAT). However, once rapport has been established and blood pressure control achieved, the study team postulate that the effect can be maintained remotely with telemedicine. Our data indicate that most patients' can achieve their blood pressure goal in 3 months or less. the study team propose replacing additional in-person visits with telemonitoring (via Skype or FaceTime) at this juncture, provided blood chemistries are stable. the study team plan to pilot this in 20 patients from 2 to 3 barbershops for 12 months.
NCT02342808
This study will examine the effects of lifestyle intervention on fitness, dietary habits, and body weight in patients with resistant hypertension (RH). Patients will be randomized to either a 4-month adjunctive lifestyle intervention designed to lower BP that will be delivered in a center-based CR program (C-LIFE), or to standardized education and physician advice (SEPA) designed to promote the same healthy behaviors and reflecting the current highest possible standard of care for promoting a healthy lifestyle in RH.
NCT04585555
The Accuryn Registry Study is an open-ended, global, multi-center, retrospective and prospective, single-arm data collection study with an FDA cleared device. The target population are cardiovascular surgery patients. Physiologic data measurements will be collected from enrolled subjects using electronic medical records and data streams via the Accuryn Monitoring System.

This descriptive, non-interventional study will collect information on the presence of risk factors in newly diagnosed ocular hypertension and open-angle glaucoma patients in Canada.
NCT04092959
A total of 240 hypertensive subjects aged 40-69 years (including 126 patients complicated with diabetes) will be included in a few communities in Beijing, and will be divided into 3 groups according to the individual wishes of the subjects: walking group(n=80, including 42 patients complicated with diabetes), Chinese square dancing group(n=80, including 42 patients complicated with diabetes) and control group(n=80, including 42 patients complicated with diabetes). All exercise sessions will be supervised and subject's exercise implementation process will be managed with intelligent equipment. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of different training programs in the real world. The demographics data, physical activity questionnaires, blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipids, height, weight and physical fitness （cardiorespiratory fitness,muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, body composition)will be measured before and after 3-month exercise training .The adverse reactions in the implementation of the interventions will be recorded. The primary outcomes are blood pressure and blood glucose.

The purpose of this study is to provide sildenafil therapy to subjects who have completed the A1481156 study for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) in India and are judged by the Investigator to derive clinical benefit from continued treatment with sildenafil citrate. Sildenafil citrate will be supplied for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) until the subject continues to derive benefits from the treatment. The treating physicians (and the sponsor) will be responsible for reporting serious adverse events.
NCT03926975
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of two instruments to measure changes in two ocular structures: 1) the anterior chamber depth (ACD) - measured using low coherence optical biometry, and 2) minimum rim width of the optic nerve head (MRW) - measured using optical coherence tomography. Changes in these ocular structures indicate fluctuations in intraocular pressure (IOP) and will be measured during scleral contact lens (SGP) wear to determine if SGP wear influences IOP. We hypothesize that a scleral lens increases the intraocular pressure (IOP) during active wear and that the ACD and MRW will also change.
NCT02519868
High blood pressure, also referred to as hypertension, affects about 65 million people in the United States alone. Approximately 25 percent of people with hypertension cannot control their high blood pressure, despite the use of multiple medications. Recently, new evidence has demonstrated that the carotid body (CB) plays a role in essential refractory hypertension, possibly due to a deregulated, enhanced activity of this organ. Animal studies showed that CB de-afferentiation, through carotid sinus nerve denervation, leads to a long-term stable drop in blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats. De-afferentiation may be performed either by injecting local anesthetics or by electrical stimulation. Both techniques are daily used in the operating theater to anesthetize nerves for a wide range of surgical procedures. We hypothesize that blocking CB with local anesthetics will result in a drop of the blood pressure in refractory hypertensive patients. We also want to test the idea that stimulating the CB with an electrical current will mislead the CB and will also result in a drop of the blood pressure.
