About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Hypertension Management Using Remote Patient Monitoring- Extended Follow Up Using Matched Cohort Design

A longer-term follow-up of patients with remote patient monitoring ordered from the initial six pilot primary care clinics (from the prior study periods: Study 1 and Study 2) will be performed and compared to a cohort of patients without RPM orders, matched on clinical and demographic characteristics, from the same six pilot primary care clinics, to serve as contemporary controls.

What participants receive

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

  • Controls-ususal careBehavioural

    Controls: patients who did not receive remote patient monitoring for blood pressure prescribed during routine care delivery, with multivariable matching to cases

  • Cases-remote patient monitoring prescribedBehavioural

    Cases: patients prescribed remote patient monitoring for blood pressure during routing care delivery

What is being measured

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

  1. Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018)

    Proportion of patients who satisfy the performance measure Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018), last BP done within 1 year and is less than 140/90 mm Hg

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018)

    Proportion of patients who satisfy the performance measure Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018), last BP done within 1 year and is less than 140/90 mm Hg

    Measured: 15 months

  3. Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018)

    Proportion of patients who satisfy the performance measure Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018), last BP done within 1 year and is less than 140/90 mm Hg

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Antihypertensive medication intensification

    Count of antihypertensive medication drug classes added or increased during the time frame minus the number decreased or discontinued

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Antihypertensive medication intensification

    Count of antihypertensive medication drug classes added or increased during the time frame minus the number decreased or discontinued

    Measured: 15 months

  3. Antihypertensive medication intensification

    Count of antihypertensive medication drug classes added or increased during the time frame minus the number decreased or discontinued

    Measured: 12 months

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2024. 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?

Controlling High Blood Pressure (NQF 0018) (time frame: 18 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05562921, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 5 Mar 2024.
