Improving blood pressure in children after kidney transplant
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how to improve blood pressure control and overall health in children after a kidney transplant. It tests a program to help manage high blood pressure and prevent future heart problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a kidney transplant more than 12 months ago
- You have high blood pressure (arterial hypertension)
- You do not have a heart defect or malformation
- You have not had treatment for a rejection episode in the last 3 months

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at treating narrowing or blockage of blood vessels in transplanted kidneys. If your transplanted kidney is showing signs of not working well and imaging shows a blocked vessel, this trial tests whether a procedure called angioplasty (opening the vessel with a tiny balloon) can help restore blood flow and improve kidney function.
This study tests a new approach to managing blood pressure during kidney transplant surgery by using specific medications chosen based on each patient's individual characteristics. The goal is to improve outcomes and reduce complications after transplantation.
This study looks at how a kidney-related blood-pressure system works in children and teenagers, comparing those with newly diagnosed primary (no known cause) high blood pressure to those with normal blood pressure. It may help doctors better understand childhood blood-pressure changes and guide future care.
This trial tests whether using a potassium-rich salt substitute instead of regular salt can help control blood pressure in kidney transplant recipients. It aims to find a simple dietary change that might improve heart health.
This trial tests whether ultrasound “renal denervation” can safely and effectively lower blood pressure in people whose hypertension is not well controlled after a kidney transplant. If you qualify, the study may help you see whether this procedure reduces office and 24-hour blood pressure readings without harming your transplanted kidney.
This study tests whether lifestyle changes—like diet and exercise—can help lower blood pressure in Black adults with moderate kidney disease. It's designed specifically for people at higher risk of kidney problems, and the goal is to see if these changes can slow kidney disease progression and reduce heart disease risk.
