About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Multidisciplinary Collaboration Care Program in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe pulmonary vascular affection, which treatment has evolved in the last few years, improving quality of life. However, adherence to treatment has not been assessed in such patients. The investigators developed a collaborative care model involving clinical pharmacists in PAH. The objective of this work is to evaluate the impact of such model of care on medication errors and adverse events, quality of life and clinical criteria.

This randomized multicentre controlled study will include approximately 100 PAH patients (NYHA II to IV). After inclusion, patients will receive either collaborative care including consultations with specialized pharmacist and nurse, or classic follow-up. Each patient will be followed during 18 months from the date of inclusion.

The investigators hope to show the positive impact of a collaborative care model in PAH. More specifically, the investigators aim to show the interest of long-term patient education to improve patient safety related to drugs, but also their quality of life, and have preliminary data about usual clinical criteria.

A study testing Patient education and Data collection in people with Hypertension, Pulmonary, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 11 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Medication-related problems (time frame: 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01038284, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
