Predicting blood pressure results after adrenal gland surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a hormone ratio measured before and one day after surgery for primary hyperaldosteronism can predict how well your blood pressure will improve. The goal is to better understand what to expect after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to remove one adrenal gland between 2017 and 2025.
- The surgery was done to treat a condition called primary hyperaldosteronism, which causes high blood pressure due to too much aldosterone hormone.
- You are willing to allow researchers to review your medical records from around the time of your surgery.

This trial tests if measuring a specific steroid can help find which patients with primary aldosteronism (a condition where the adrenal glands make too much of the hormone aldosterone) might be cured by surgery. You would undergo imaging and blood tests from the adrenal veins to see if the problem is in one gland.
This study looks at how well your adrenal gland works right after surgery for a hormone condition called primary aldosteronism. It uses a simple test to measure your adrenal function, helping doctors understand how your body recovers.
This study tests whether a steroid medication (hydrocortisone) after adrenal gland surgery helps protect kidney function in patients with primary aldosteronism and mild-to-moderate kidney disease. Researchers want to see if the steroid reduces further kidney damage.
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 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.
