Blood test after adrenal surgery to predict blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test result taken right after adrenal gland removal surgery can predict how blood pressure will improve later. If you've had this surgery, joining could help doctors understand better outcomes for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove one adrenal gland for primary hyperaldosteronism (a condition causing high blood pressure and hormone imbalance).
- Your surgery happened between 2017 and 2025.
- You are willing to have your medical records reviewed for research.

This trial tests whether a special type of steroid medicine can help guide treatment for primary aldosteronism, a condition that causes high blood pressure. If the tests show the problem is in one adrenal gland, you might be able to have surgery to cure it.
This study looks at how often adrenal insufficiency happens after surgery for primary aldosteronism, especially in patients who also have an overproduction of cortisol. It helps doctors understand if extra hormone support is needed after surgery.
This study examines how different methods of measuring hormone levels in the blood help identify primary aldosteronism (a condition causing high blood pressure). Researchers want to find the best cutoff values to identify patients who might benefit from surgery to remove part of the adrenal gland.
This study tests whether taking a steroid (hydrocortisone) after adrenal gland surgery helps protect kidney function in people with primary aldosteronism and chronic kidney disease. It could slow down further kidney damage.
This study looks at a test called adrenal venous sampling, which helps doctors find out which adrenal gland is causing your high blood pressure. Taking part may help doctors decide if surgery could fix the problem.
This study looks at how different types of adrenal tumors might affect the heart during and after surgery. It aims to help doctors understand and reduce the risk of heart injury in patients having these tumors removed.
