About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Algorithm for Diagnosis of Hypertension by Home Blood Pressure Monitoring

Home blood pressure measurement has been recommended to use in the diagnosis of hypertension. The investigators have developed diagnostic algorithm of hypertension by using 24-hour and home blood pressure measurement. However, the diagnostic agreement between home blood pressure measurement and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement is about 70 - 85%. The discrepancy of diagnosis between home blood pressure measurement and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure is one of the barriers to introduce home blood pressure measurement in the diagnosis of hypertension.

To solve the discrepancy, identifying the characteristic patients showing discrepancy of hypertension diagnosis between home blood pressure measurement and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement is needed.

The purpose of the present study are (1) to validate the diagnostic algorithm of hypertension by using 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure measurement the investigators have developed, and (2) to identifying the characteristics of patients showing discrepancy of diagnosis between 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure measurement, and (3) lastly to improve the diagnostic algorithm of hypertension by using home blood pressure measurement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension,Essential and Home Blood Pressure, run by DongGuk University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 14 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 12 Jul 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 South Korea. 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?

validation of the diagnostic algorithm of hypertension (time frame: at baseline). 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 NCT03855605, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Jul 2021.
