Brain stimulation for blood pressure control
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.

This study tests whether the MobiusHD™ device can help lower blood pressure in people whose pressure stays high despite stable medicine. You may be screened for related nerve control problems and will likely need specific testing of your heart rate/nerve function.
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.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive spinal stimulation device can help improve low blood pressure and dizziness when standing in people with spinal cord injury. It may be an option for those who have had a spinal cord injury for at least a year and experience blood pressure problems.
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation at specific points on the body (like acupressure) can help lower blood pressure without medication. It may be a good option if you have mild high blood pressure and are not currently taking drugs for it.
This trial looks at how blood pressure and heart rate change when standing up or exercising in healthy people and in older adults with high blood pressure. It aims to understand how the body's automatic (autonomic) nervous system controls these functions.
This trial tests whether picking a blood pressure medication based on your specific heart function type can work better. If you have mild to moderate high blood pressure (140-179/90-109 mmHg) and haven't taken any pills for it yet, this study may help find the best treatment for you.
