Blood test to find hidden cause of high blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new blood-based test that may help identify if your high blood pressure is caused by a hormone problem (endocrine hypertension). If you have difficult-to-treat high blood pressure or other signs of a hormone issue, this study could help find the root cause.
