About this study
Official title: Effects of Multimodal Artificial Intelligence-Driven Out-of-Hospital Management on Patients With Hypertension and Cardiometabolic Risk Factors
High blood pressure often occurs together with abnormal blood glucose, abnormal blood lipids, or abdominal obesity. Managing these conditions outside the hospital can be difficult. This study will test whether a digital health program that combines artificial intelligence (AI) with review and support by doctors and nurses improves health outcomes compared with standard out-of-hospital guidance.
The study will enroll 150 adults aged 18 to 70 years who have hypertension and at least one additional cardiometabolic risk factor that is not at target. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the hybrid AI-assisted management group or the standard-guidance group. The intervention group will use a patient mini-program and connected devices to monitor blood pressure, glucose, and lifestyle information. The AI system will propose personalized medication, diet, exercise, and monitoring plans, which the healthcare team will review and confirm before delivery. The control group will receive routine printed health education and usual clinical follow-up.
All participants will be followed for 6 months. The main outcome is the proportion of participants achieving blood pressure control together with control of at least one glycemic or lipid indicator. Other assessments include treatment adherence, cardiovascular events, hospitalizations, medical costs, quality of life, and system usability.
Read the detailed description
This single-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group controlled trial evaluates a multimodal AI-driven, human-AI collaborative out-of-hospital health management system for adults with hypertension and cardiometabolic risk factors. A central randomization system will allocate 150 participants in a 1:1 ratio to hybrid AI-assisted management or standard out-of-hospital guidance. Follow-up lasts 6 months.
The intervention integrates clinical data, patient-generated data, and device data from Huawei wearable bands/watches, blood pressure monitors, and glucose meters. An AI agent informed by the COM-B and Fogg behavior models generates personalized recommendations, monitoring tasks, reminders, adherence support, and risk alerts. Healthcare professionals review, modify, and approve key recommendations, respond to medical questions, and manage alerts. The control group receives a printed health education booklet, instructions on medication use and follow-up, and usual clinical care without the study digital system or additional proactive follow-up.
Study visits occur at screening, baseline, Month 3, and Month 6, with additional telephone follow-up. Blood pressure is measured using a HUAWEI WATCH D2. Laboratory assessments include glucose, lipids, insulin, HbA1c, and free fatty acids after an 8-hour fast. The primary endpoint is a participant-level composite of blood pressure target attainment and target attainment for at least one glycemic or lipid indicator at Month 6. Secondary and exploratory assessments cover multidimensional adherence, major adverse cardiovascular events, all-cause hospitalization, medical costs related to hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hyperuricemia, SF-36 quality of life, and System Usability Scale ratings.
The planned analysis uses intention-to-treat principles, with chi-square tests and logistic regression for the primary endpoint, analysis of covariance for continuous changes, Kaplan-Meier methods for cardiovascular events, and multiple imputation for missing primary and secondary outcome data.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Proportion of Participants Achieving Blood Pressure Control and Control of at Least One Glycemic or Lipid Indicator
Proportion of participants achieving both: (1) blood pressure <140/90 mmHg for general hypertension, or <130/80 mmHg for participants with metabolic syndrome; and (2) at least one glycemic or lipid target. Glycemic target: fasting plasma glucose <7.0 mmol/L and HbA1c <7.0%. LDL-C target: <2.6 mmol/L for intermediate ASCVD risk or <1.8 mmol/L for high/very high ASCVD risk.
Measured: At 6 months after randomization
Composite Treatment and Health-Management Adherence
Composite adherence assessed using MMAS-8 (score ≥6 indicates good medication adherence) and system data. Good monitoring adherence: ≥4 valid blood pressure measurements/week. Good home-monitoring adherence: ≥80% of AI-recommended tasks completed/week. Dietary/physical-activity adherence is defined in the protocol using achievement of at least 4 of 5 domains (medication, monitoring, diet, physical activity, follow-up), with >80% of participants meeting this threshold.
Measured: At 6 months after randomization
Secondary outcomes (3)
Incidence of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE)
Composite of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and nonfatal stroke.
Measured: From randomization through 6 months
Health-Related Quality of Life (SF-36 Score)
Assessed using the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36).
Measured: Baseline and 6 months after randomization
System Satisfaction and Usability (System Usability Scale Score)

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
High blood pressure often occurs together with abnormal blood glucose, abnormal blood lipids, or abdominal obesity. Managing these conditions outside the hospital can be difficult. This study will test whether a digital health program that combines artificial intelligence (AI) with review and support by doctors and nurses improves health outcomes compared with standard out-of-hospital guidance.
The study will enroll 150 adults aged 18 to 70 years who have hypertension and at least one additional cardiometabolic risk factor that is not at target. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the hybrid AI-assisted management group or the standard-guidance group. The intervention group will use a patient mini-program and connected devices to monitor blood pressure, glucose, and lifestyle information. The AI system will propose personalized medication, diet, exercise, and monitoring plans, which the healthcare team will review and confirm before delivery. The control group will receive routine printed health education and usual clinical follow-up.
All participants will be followed for 6 months. The main outcome is the proportion of participants achieving blood pressure control together with control of at least one glycemic or lipid indicator. Other assessments include treatment adherence, cardiovascular events, hospitalizations, medical costs, quality of life, and system usability.
