This trial tests a program to help people with hard-to-control high blood pressure (resistant hypertension) manage their own blood pressure at home. If you take several blood pressure medicines but your numbers are still high, this study may help you learn new self-management skills.
This study tests a treatment called BiSAAE for people whose high blood pressure doesn't improve with three standard medicines. The goal is to see if it is safe and helps lower blood pressure better.
This study tests two simple, low-effort exercises (like squeezing a ball or holding a gentle pose) to see if they can help lower blood pressure for people whose high blood pressure doesn’t respond well to medication. The goal is to offer a safe, easy way to improve heart health.
This study tests a standard approach to lowering blood pressure in people whose blood pressure is not well controlled with current treatment. It may help find a more effective way to manage hypertension.
