Trial summary

In Tunisia, high blood pressure (HTN) is a public health problem whose prevalence varies from 28.7% to 34.7%. Hypertension can be both, cause and consequence of chronic kidney disease, and its prevalence is quite high in this population. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Tunisian Clinical Registry on Chronic Kidney Disease in Hypertensive Patients. National Multicentric Cross Section Survey.

In Tunisia, high blood pressure (HTN) is a public health problem whose prevalence varies from 28.7% to 34.7%. Hypertension can be both, cause and consequence of chronic kidney disease, and its prevalence is quite high in this population. It is both a risk factor for mortality and cardiovascular morbidity, but also a major cause of terminal chronic kidney disease becoming an additional public health concern.

Detecting and diagnosing chronic kidney in all hypertensives at an early stage remains a global public health challenge. A well-conducted treatment makes it possible to reach the blood pressure objective but also to reduce the risk of occurrence of a cardiovascular event and to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease.

In Tunisia, few data exists concerning the prevalence of chronic kidney disease in hypertensive subjects, thus limiting the development and elaboration of preventive measures. A national survey will thus be conducted by the "Kidney and Metabolic Diseases" Working Group under the aegis of the Tunisian Society of Nephrology, Dialysis and Kidney Transplantation. The main objective is to estimate the prevalence of chronic kidney disease in hypertensive tunisian patients.

Read the detailed description

This is national multicentric cross-sectional survey. The study will be carried out for one month at medical departments and ambulatory clinics of general physicians, family medicine specialists, endocrinologists, specialists in nutrition and metabolic diseases, nephrologists, internal medicine physicians, cardiologists, all physicians caring for non-diabetic hypertensive patients or any healthcare providers in charge of hypertensive patients.

A Steering Committee helps investigators to monitor their patient inclusions, performs audit trails and prepares the statistical analysis plan for the study. Collected data are managed by the DACIMA Clinical Suite®, the electronic data capture platform which complies with the FDA 21 CFR part 11 requirements (Food and Drug Administration 21 Code of Federal Regulations part 11), the HIPAA specifications (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), and the ICH standards (International Conference on Harmonisation).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Hypertension, run by Dacima Consulting at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 5 Sep 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 Tunisia. 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?

Prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease (time frame: At inclusion). 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 5 Sep 2024.
