About this study

Official title: The Association Between Home Blood Pressures and Clinic Blood Pressures in Patients Presenting for Surgery.

This study aims to assess the performance of presurgical clinic blood pressure measurements in predicting home blood pressure readings among surgical patients. It also aims to measure the association between home blood pressures and patient perspectives on blood pressure control.

Read the detailed description

A convenience sample of presurgical patients seen in a preadmission testing clinic were enrolled and sent home with a home blood pressure monitor that stored up to 50 readings. Participants were asked to return the BP cuff on the day of their surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Performance of Blood Pressure Referral Threshold

    The positive predictive value of preadmission testing-measured blood pressure to predict mean home blood pressure >135/85mmHg will be calculated.

    Measured: Subjects followed for approximately 1 year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Patient Perspectives and Beliefs Regarding Blood Pressure Status as They Relate to Actual Home Blood Pressures.

    In secondary analyses, the agreement between patients' self-reported blood pressure control (binary outcome) and home blood pressure monitor-determined blood pressure status (binary outcome) will we assessed via Cohen's kappa and raw indices of agreement.

    Measured: Approximately 60 days

  2. Preidentified Subgroups

    The investigators will examine the correlation between blood pressure and heart rate in the subset of patients with hypertension diagnosis.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Patient Perspectives

    The possible association of self-reported availability of primary care (5 point LIKERT scale) with home blood pressure monitor-status will be examined by the Mantel-Haenszel Chi-Square Test.

    Measured: 60 days

  4. Patient Adherence

    The possible association of medication adherence (Morisky scale) with home blood pressure monitor-status will be examined by the Mantel-Haenszel Chi-Square Test.

    Measured: 60 days

  5. Preidentified Subgroup Analysis

    The investigators will examine the correlation between blood pressure and heart rate in the subset of patients without hypertension diagnosis.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension, run by Yale University at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Dec 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Performance of Blood Pressure Referral Threshold (time frame: Subjects followed for approximately 1 year). 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 NCT02136810, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2023.
