Tracking daily blood pressure patterns in people at high heart risk
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study measures how your blood pressure changes across the day in people at higher risk of heart and blood vessel disease. It may help researchers understand why blood pressure patterns vary, which could guide better prevention or care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study examines how blood pressure patterns over 24 hours relate to artery stiffness and metabolic health markers like blood sugar and triglycerides. Understanding these connections may help doctors better predict heart disease risk.
This study collects health information to understand how well people with high blood pressure (who take blood pressure medicines) reach their blood pressure targets. It may help improve future guidance on blood pressure monitoring and control.
This study tests whether using a home blood pressure monitoring device and phone-based check-ins can help people with high blood pressure and chronic kidney disease manage their health better. You may be asked to record readings and send them regularly during the study.
This study looks at whether combining home blood pressure readings with special urine testing can better track health risk and improve care. You might benefit by helping researchers learn who is at higher risk and how to monitor you more closely at home.
This study tests a new wearable device that measures blood pressure without a cuff. You might be able to join if you are generally healthy, not pregnant, and have no serious heart or kidney problems.
This study looks at how stiff the arteries are in children and young adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared to healthy controls. The results may help doctors better understand heart risks and improve care for young people with kidney problems.
