What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The percentage of emergency department attendings that accurately predict which patients meet criteria for hypertension in two week follow-up using home blood pressure monitoring.

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The predictive value of the emergency department measured blood pressure by the standard ED blood pressure device, BpTRU device, and home blood pressure device for hypertension in follow-up

    Measured: 18 months

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The percentage of emergency department attendings that accurately predict which patients meet criteria for hypertension in two week follow-up using home blood pressure monitoring. (time frame: 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
