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 18 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: outpatients with hypertension in different levels of hospitals in China

Who may be able to join

  • Outpatients from departments of Cardiology, Endocrinology, Nephrology, Neurology, Geriatrics or General Internal Medicine.
  • Diagnosed as hypertension. Diagnostic criteria: 1)The office BP measured at the day of visit and at least one time before that day were above the cut-off values ( ≥140 mmHg SBP and/or ≥90 mmHg DBP); 2)for patients with normal BP at the day of visit, they should have already been given pre-treatment with antihypertensive drugs ≥ 2 weeks.
  • Voluntary participation.

Who cannot join

  • Patients aged< 18 years old.
  • Patients without a definite diagnosis of hypertension(for instance, if the patient has been taking antihypertensive drugs irregularly, it is difficult to confirm the diagnosis of hypertension).
  • Patients with a definite diagnosis of secondary hypertension.
  • Patients are diagnosed dyslipidemia with clear cause, such as nephrotic syndrome, severe hypothyroidism, terminal stage of malignancy, etc.
  • Patients are diagnosed end-stage renal disease, hemodialysis, and peritoneal dialysis patients.
  • Patients diagnosed with mental abnormalities who are unable to complete the questionnaire.
  • Patients have once participated in this research during this study cycle(to avoid repeated participation).

About this study

Official title: Survey on BP, Lipids and Cardiovascular Risks in the Outpatient Hypertensives and Continuing Medical Education Program

To investigate the proportion, medication use and control rate of metabolic abnormalities such as dyslipidemia in outpatients with hypertension in different levels of hospitals in China. To investigate the gap between guidelines and clinical practices, and analyze the cause. we also set up a continuing medical education program to narrow the gap and the effect of the program will be estimated.

What does the primary outcome measure?

rate of blood pressure goal achievement (time frame: 2017-2020). 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 NCT03862183, 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?
