Using electronic health records to study people with high blood pressure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is not testing a new medicine. Instead, it is using electronic health records to better understand people with high blood pressure, with a focus on those recently diagnosed. If you join, you may help researchers learn more about how to improve care for others with high blood pressure.
