Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT06281756RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CBT and Trazodone for Sleep and Blood Pressure in Insomnia

Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06843577Recruiting
Handgrip therapy for high blood pressure
This trial tests if a simple handgrip exercise device can help lower blood pressure in people with elevated blood pressure or hypertension. You will use the device at home and have regular check-ups to see how well it works.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 22 years+ - NCT07209254Recruiting
Two smartphone plans to manage high blood pressure after childbirth
This study tests whether two different mobile-health tools can help new mothers keep their blood pressure under control in the first weeks after giving birth. It is designed for women who were diagnosed with a blood pressure condition during pregnancy and need medication after delivery.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03496792Recruiting
Study of blood pressure changes when standing up
This study checks how your blood pressure changes when you go from lying down to standing. It may help researchers understand why some people get “orthostatic hypertension” (higher blood pressure when standing) and how that reflex works.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06742723RecruitingPhase 3
Study of baxdrostat and dapagliflozin for kidney disease and high blood pressure
This trial tests if combining baxdrostat with dapagliflozin helps protect kidney function and reduce heart risks in people with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure. It's for adults who are already taking standard blood pressure medications.
Bridgeville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06059638Recruiting
Pacemaker pacing for blood pressure control
This study tests whether adjusting the timing of a pacemaker can help lower blood pressure in people who already have or need a pacemaker. It could be an option for those whose blood pressure is not well controlled with medication.
Doylestown, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07064473RecruitingPhase 3
Testing vicadrostat plus empagliflozin for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease
This study tests a new pill called vicadrostat taken with another medicine (empagliflozin) to see if it helps people with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. It may reduce the risk of heart problems, but you must not have had heart failure or use certain other heart medications.
Beaver, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03513770RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing how the body controls blood pressure and heart rate
This early research trial looks at how your body’s automatic control system manages blood pressure and heart function. You may be asked to undergo tests to measure these responses, and the study aims to understand control of the circulation (blood flow).
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 21–35 - NCT07599579Recruiting
Mobile app to manage high blood pressure after pregnancy complications
This study tests a smartphone app to help women who had high blood pressure during pregnancy manage their blood pressure now, 10–20 years later. The goal is to see if the app helps keep blood pressure under control and reduces heart disease risk.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05546931Recruiting
Mobile health program to help control high blood pressure
This study tests a phone-based (mobile) health program to help people in rural areas better control high blood pressure. It may help you track your readings and follow a plan that supports safer blood pressure over time.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06837181Recruiting
Understanding diabetes complications in cystic fibrosis
This study looks at how long-term diabetes affects people with cystic fibrosis. It helps researchers understand complications and improve care.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07217769Recruiting
Naps for night shift workers' heart health and performance
This study tests whether taking short planned naps during night shifts can help lower blood pressure and improve how well you feel and perform at work. It is for public safety or healthcare workers in Western Pennsylvania who currently work nights.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07222917RecruitingPhase 2
Dapagliflozin with baxdrostat for kidney disease and high blood pressure
This trial tests if adding dapagliflozin to baxdrostat (a new blood pressure drug) reduces protein in urine better than baxdrostat alone in people with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure. It aims to find a more effective way to protect kidney health.

What taking part in a blood pressure study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
