About this study

Official title: Registry Study on "Control Nocturnal Hypertension to Reach the Target "(CONTROL-NHT)

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is a major innovation in the history of hypertension diagnosis. In clinical practice, the most well established indication for using ABPM is to identify patients who have high BP readings in the office but normal readings during usual daily activities outside of this setting or vice versa, and to identify varying 24-h BP profiles. However, in recent years, there has been increasing interest in BP values during sleep, and nocturnal BP is now recognized to be superior to daytime BP in predicting fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events (stroke, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular death), especially in medicated patients.

The current direction in the management of hypertension is toward earlier and lower BP control for 24 hours, including the nocturnal and morning periods. Therefore, it may be of great significance to pay attention to the management of nocturnal blood pressure so as to reduce the increased cardiovascular risks.

Information of nocturnal hypertensive patients defined by ABPM was prospectively registered nationwide, and then to investigate whether there was difference in cardiovascular prognosis according to the control of ambulatory nocturnal blood pressure.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT04137549
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Nocturnal controlled hypertensionNocturnal blood pressure was controlled under 120/70 mmHg after aggressive anti-hypertensive therapy.
Nocturnal uncontrolled hypertensionNocturnal blood pressure was still over 120/70 mmHg after aggressive anti-hypertensive therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. The occurrence time of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events.

    Fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, coronary artery bypass grafting or interventional stenting or balloon dilation, and hospitalization for heart failure.

    Measured: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event assessed up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The occurrence time of all-cause mortality.

    Measured: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event, assessed up to 3 years

  2. The occurrence time of fatal and nonfatal stroke.

    Measured: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event assessed up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Nocturnal Hypertension, run by Shanghai Institute of Hypertension 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 6 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, MD,PhD (0086-021-64370045 ext. 663201, liyanshcn@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The occurrence time of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. (time frame: From date of enrollment until date of first documented event 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.
