About this study

Official title: Virtual Hypertension Management Pilot: Randomized Evaluation of Electronic Health Record-connected Blood Pressure Cuffs in a Clinical Pharmacist Panel.

Investigators are examining the quality improvement impact of providing patients with a an electronic health record-connected blood pressure cuff. Investigators will give half of patients already eligible for hypertension management within a clinical pharmacist panel, the ability to upload their blood pressure data into Stanford's electronic health record.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Connected-deviceOther

    This intervention will allow patients to upload blood pressure data automatically from a blood pressure cuff into the electronic health record.

  • Usual careOther

    This intervention will consist of usual clinical care as determined by the clinical pharmacist.

Study groups in NCT03291535

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in blood pressure over time in control group vs. the intervention group

    Difference in the change in blood pressure between the control group and intervention group.

    Measured: From enrollment to 6 months later

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Patient visits

    Measurement of the number of in-person visits

    Measured: From enrollment to 6 months later

  2. Patient remote interactions

    Measurement of the number of patient phone calls plus patient-portal messages to the clinical pharmacist

    Measured: From enrollment to 6 months later

  3. Medication changes

    Number of changes in medication or medication dose

    Measured: From enrollment to 6 months later

  4. Blood pressure control

    Time to reach target blood pressure control (Adults 18-59 years of age <140/90 mm Hg, Adults 60-85 years of age, without a diagnosis of diabetes, <150/90 mm Hg, Adults 60-85 years of age, with a diagnosis of diabetes, <140/90 mm Hg)

    Measured: From enrollment to 6 months later

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Connected-device in people with Hypertension and Electronic Health Record, run by Stanford University at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Change in blood pressure over time in control group vs. the intervention group (time frame: From enrollment to 6 months later). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Aug 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
