Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 13 to 30 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • must be receiving at least one anti-hypertensive agent or have an office SBP ≥120 mmHg or >90th percentile for age, sex or height at the time of the screening visit
  • have a mid-arm circumference between 22-37cm (BP cuff size limitation)
  • able to provide consent to participate in our study
  • able to use smartphones, or able to use any phone to call or text our study personnel with home BP readings. If participant does not have a smartphone, they will be allowed to call, text, or e-mail home BP readings on a weekly basis instead.

Who cannot join

  • We will exclude those who:
  • are or are planning to become pregnant, due to inability to take multiple classes of anti-hypertensive agents
  • are marginally housed, due to concerns regarding routine follow-up
  • are actively participating in a different interventional trial that may affect blood pressure
  • are unwilling to consent to participate
  • institutionalized individuals or prisoners
Show all 11Show fewer
  • are actively abusing illicit drugs or alcohol
  • have a history of poor or doubtful compliance (e.g., frequently missed appointments)
  • have office SBP >170 mmHg
  • are already taking ≥5 anti-hypertensive medications (any classes, including diuretics)

About this study

Hypertension is an increasingly common problem in children, especially among those who are obese or with diabetes and chronic kidney disease. This study is a pilot randomized controlled trial designed to test whether improved blood pressure control can be achieved with the use of remote home blood pressure monitoring in children with uncontrolled blood pressure.

Read the detailed description

Hypertension is an increasingly common problem in children, especially among those who are obese or with diabetes and chronic kidney disease. This study is a pilot randomized controlled trial designed to test whether improved blood pressure control can be achieved with the use of remote home blood pressure monitoring in children with uncontrolled blood pressure. Study investigators will randomize 60 children who have elevated BP (defined as receipt of ≥1 anti-hypertensive agent or office SBP ≥90th percentile) to either home BP monitoring with a home SBP target of < 90th percentile or less than 120 mm Hg, which ever is lower (intervention group) versus usual care group in 2:1 ratio. This study aims to (1) compare the safety of BP lowering in intervention versus usual care patients, (2) determine the efficacy of the intervention and provide estimates for the refinement of sample size determination for an eventual full-scale trial, and (3) assess the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention, recruitment rates, and barriers to trial completion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Hypertension, run by University of California, San Francisco at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 11 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 28 Apr 2021. 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 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. 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?

Achieved Blood Pressure (time frame: Time Frame: Months 4-12). 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 28 Apr 2021.
