About this study

24 hour ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring should be the first choice for diagnosis and treatment of hypertension according to European Societyof Hypertension (ESH) and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guideline on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Finally, we should promote the clinical application of 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to greatly improve the management level of hypertension in China and effectively reduce the risk caused by hypertension in the population.

Information of hypertensive patients with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was prospectively registered nationwide,and then to investigate whether there was difference in cardiovascular prognosis according to the control of ABP.

Read the detailed description

Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular disease, and it is a fatal disease causing stroke, myocardial infarction and heart failure. Effective blood pressure management can greatly reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. The control rate of hypertension in China is very severe. A national survey in 2002 showed that the control rate for hypertension was 6.1%. Another latest survey showed that among the 1.7 million Chinese aged 35 to 75, the detection rate of hypertension was 37 percent, among which the awareness rate and treatment rate and control rate were 36%, 23% and 6% respectively.

Traditionally, BP in the office or clinic has been assessed with the auscultatory technique, which has survived to this day in clinical practice. Although the technique is inherently accurate, it is dependent on observer attention to detail, which is lacking, and it provides only a momentary measurement of BP, usually under circumstances that can influence the level of BP being measured. To overcome these serious methodology problems, 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure techniques has been developed.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is a major innovation in the development of hypertension diagnosis, and China has more than 20-year experience in clinical application of blood pressure monitoring. It measures blood pressure in a person's daily life and finds "masked hypertension", "white coat hypertension", "isolated nocturnal hypertension", "morning hypertension" and other special hypertension types. Compared with the office blood pressure, ambulatory blood pressure can better predict the incidence of target organ damage and cardiovascular events.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring not only can accurately assess blood pressure level, but also evaluate the effect of hypertensive therapy. Therefore, 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring should be the first choice for diagnosis and treatment of hypertension. Finally, we should promote the clinical application of 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to greatly improve the management level of hypertension in China and effectively reduce the risk caused by hypertension in the population.

Information of hypertensive patients with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was prospectively registered nationwide,and then to investigate whether there was difference in cardiovascular prognosis according to the control of ABP.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite end point of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events

    Composite end point of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events

    Measured: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event or date of death from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The control rate of clinic blood pressure

    Measured: From date of enrollment until study completion,an average of 3 years

  2. The control rate of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure

    Measured: From date of enrollment until study completion,an average of 3 years

  3. the proportion of white-coat uncontrolled hypertension

    Measured: From date of enrollment until study completion,an average of 3 years

  4. the proportion of masked uncontrolled hypertension

    Measured: From date of enrollment until study completion,an average of 3 years

  5. The occurrence time of cardiovascular events in different groups

    Measured: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event or date of death from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension and Blood Pressure, run by Yan Li at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2025. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Yan Li, Professor (021-64370045 ext. 663228, liyanshcn@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite end point of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (time frame: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event or date of death from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years). 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 6 Jan 2025.
