Remote ischemic conditioning for high blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if a simple, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (briefly restricting blood flow to an arm) can safely lower blood pressure in people with essential hypertension. It is for adults aged 30-75 whose blood pressure is consistently high despite standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 30 and 75 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with essential high blood pressure.
- Your systolic blood pressure (top number) is 140 mmHg or higher on three separate readings within 3 days before the study starts.
- You are willing to sign a consent form.
- Your blood pressure is not severely high (below 180/110 mmHg).
- You are not planning to change your blood pressure medicines in the next 3 weeks.

This study tests whether a simple “remote conditioning” method done on the arm can help lower blood pressure in older adults with hypertension. It may help people whose blood pressure is high but not dangerously high at the time of screening.
This trial tests if a simple, non-invasive blood pressure cuff procedure can improve blood vessel health in people with possible heart failure. It is an early, single-session study to see how the body responds.
This trial studies whether doing “remote ischemic preconditioning” (repeated brief conditioning of a limb) and mindfulness helps people with mild high blood pressure over the long term. It may help lower blood pressure and improve heart-related health, if you can safely do the required activities.
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive procedure on your arm can change certain substances in your blood. It may help researchers understand how to protect the body from injury.
This study tests a non-drug treatment called remote ischemic conditioning to see if it can lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure who live at high altitudes. The treatment involves briefly inflating and deflating a blood pressure cuff on the arm, which may help improve blood pressure control.
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your leg) to see if it helps brain recovery after aneurysm surgery. It might reduce secondary damage and improve outcomes.
