Trial summary

Automated office blood pressure (AOBP) devices are recommended for high blood pressure diagnosis. One of those devices is the Omron HEM-907 (Omron Healthcare). It is currently not known if blood pressure measurements performed with this device in a clinical setting are equivalent to those made in a research setting. Read more about this study

About this study

Automated office blood pressure (AOBP) devices are recommended for high blood pressure diagnosis. One of those devices is the Omron HEM-907 (Omron Healthcare). It is currently not known if blood pressure measurements performed with this device in a clinical setting are equivalent to those made in a research setting. Therefore, this randomized-controlled trial was designed. It aims to compare the blood pressure measurements performed in a clinical and a research setting. Seventy patients will be included and randomized to a clinical/research or research/clinical sequence.

Read the detailed description

Hypertension is a common condition, with an estimated prevalence around 20 percent in Canada. It is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Recently, Hypertension Canada has updated its guidelines and recommend we should consider a 120 mm Hg systolic blood pressure target in high-risk patients aged 50 years or older. This recommendation derives mainly from the SPRINT trial. In this trial, blood pressure was measured with an automated oscillometric blood pressure (AOBP) device, the Omron HEM-907 (Omron Healthcare). However, it is not known if measurements performed with this device in a clinical setting are equivalent to those made in a research setting. Therefore, this randomized-controlled trial was designed. It aims to compare the blood pressure measurements of 70 patients in a clinical and a research setting. Patients will be randomized to a clinical/research or a research/clinical sequence.

    Participants will be assigned to a sequence of: clinical visit first/research visit second.

Study groups in NCT03360669
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sequence: Clinical/ResearchExperimentalParticipants assigned to this arm will have their blood pressure measured in a clinical setting first, and in a research setting second. The sequence randomization corresponds to the intervention. Visits will be at least a day apart but within a two-week period. During the clinical visit, they will have their blood pressure measured with the Omron HEM-907, an automated office blood pressure (AOBP) device. During the research setting, participants will be guided through a series of research-driven steps such as study questionnaires and completion of consent forms. They will have their blood pressure measured in both arms with a mercury sphygmomanometer, and then 3 measurements with a mercury sphygmomanometer. AOBP measurements (Omron HEM-907) will be performed at the end of the visit.
Receives: Other: Sequence: Clinical/Research
Sequence: Research/ClinicalActive comparatorParticipants assigned to this arm will go through the same measurements and procedures exception made of the research-first and clinical-second sequence. The intervention to which they are randomized corresponds to the sequence of the visits.

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 3 inclusion and 6 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 11 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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. 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?

Mean automated office blood pressure systolic blood pressure estimates (time frame: Up to 2 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03360669, which also lists 12 linked publications.

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 11 Apr 2018.
