Catecholamine levels during adrenal artery embolization

This study tests a procedure that blocks tiny arteries in the adrenal gland to treat high blood pressure and low potassium caused by aldosteronism. It may be an option if you cannot take medications or cannot have surgery.

This study compares two treatments for primary aldosteronism (a condition causing high blood pressure due to an adrenal gland issue). One treatment is a minimally invasive procedure called superselective embolization, and the other is keyhole surgery. This trial aims to see which is better and safer for patients.

This trial studies whether a specific treatment (related to spironolactone/aldosterone support) can improve how well your blood vessels work in people with primary aldosteronism. It may help reduce blood pressure risk by improving blood vessel health.

This trial tests whether a treatment called SAAE can improve “ventricular remodeling,” meaning changes in the heart muscle, in people with primary aldosteronism (PA). It may help the heart work more efficiently by targeting the cause of high aldosterone levels.

This study looks at the genes and molecules in people with primary aldosteronism (a condition where the adrenal glands make too much of the hormone aldosterone), primary hypertension (high blood pressure), and healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand these conditions and find better ways to diagnose and treat them.

This study compares two ways of doing a test called adrenal vein sampling, which helps doctors find the cause of high blood pressure caused by a hormone problem. The test is done through a vein in the arm, and the study looks at whether using one catheter or two is better. If you have high blood pressure and are being checked for primary aldosteronism, this trial might help improve how the test is done.
