High blood pressure is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Traditionally, one of the ways to treat or prevent high blood pressure is to prescribe aerobic exercise training (i.e. brisk walking). Stretching may also be effective because it may cause changes in blood vessel stiffness and therefore reduce resistance …
Hypertension is the most important cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD), stroke, and premature death (WHO, 2021). It is estimated by The World Health Organisation in 2021 that 1.4 billion individuals across the globe have high blood pressure, with only 14% of people actively managing these elevated levels. Simple and effective …
Hypertension remains a global burden in cardiovascular disease leading to stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart failure. Its myocardial complications result from increased mechanical load on the heart. Under physiological conditions of increased myocardial load and resulting myocardial stretch, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) synthesis and secretion …
The purpose of this study is to access the safety of etomidate - propofol mixture vs propofol for total intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients undergoing abdominal surgery.
The American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association hypertension guidelines recommend treatment initiation with dual antihypertensive therapy in adults with stage 2 hypertension (corresponding to grade 1 and 2 in the ESH classification) and an average BP \>20/10 mm Hg above target. Amlodipine and valsartan are two of the most commonly …
The purpose of this study is to test the hypertension (HTN) app-based intervention to see if it is more effective in improving uncontrolled HTN and HTN self-care among Africian-Americans from baseline to post-intervention (immediate, 3 months and 6 months post-intervention) as compared to the standard of care.
This project aims to address healthcare disparities among Navaho people diagnosed with hypertension or prehypertension through three main objectives. Firstly, it identifies and shares insights on healthcare access disparities affecting Navaho individuals experiencing nonadherence to hypertension treatment. Secondly, the proposal develops a telehealth solution based on factors identified as knowledge …
Since Hypertension affects all body systems and importantly postural balance control. So, the evidence indicates a strong link and connection between balance and hypertension through somatosensory, visual, vestibular, musculoskeletal, and CNS integration of inputs from both peripheral and motor systems. Therefore, to fill this gap of how much balance and …
The treatment of high blood pressure, or hypertension, is multifaceted and can include pharmacological therapies (i.e., medications) and lifestyle modifications such as physical activity. Chronotherapy, which describes timing of a treatment with the body's daily rhythms, has recently been used with hypertension medications and has been shown to be effective …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether patients assigned to the telemedicine (HealthCap) group demonstrate non-inferior blood pressure (BP) control compared to patients in the usual care group at 12 months. The main question it aims to answer is: Do participants in telemedicine group have non-inferior daytime …
