NCT03242785

Brief Summary

The ADAMPA study is a pragmatic randomized clinical trial which aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention based on self-monitoring and self-titration of medication in poorly controlled hypertensive patients 40 years and older. The total duration of the study is 3 years, with 6 months of enrolment and 1 year of follow-up to measure the primary endpoint (Difference in mean systolic blood pressure, in mmHg, between the intervention and control groups).

Study Arms (2)

Self-monitoring/Self-titration

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention consists of self-monitoring blood pressure at home, and subsequent medication self-titration, based on a medication adjustment plan pre-established by the family physician, in patients with uncontrolled hypertension.

Other: Self-monitoring/Self-titration

Routine care

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in this arm will receive routine care for high blood pressure in the primary health care center.

Interventions

The intervention of the ADAMPA trial is not pharmacological but an intervention that modifies usual clinical practice. The intervention of self-monitoring and self-titration of the medication is composed of 3 elements: 1. Education of the patient: information and training on hypertension, its risks, management, the benefits of an adequate control and the generic measures for an optimal control. 2. Training for self-monitoring: Patients will be trained to perform the self-measurement of blood pressure correctly (and recording their values in the sheet enabled for this purpose) 3. Training for self-titration: patients will be instructed on the target BP numbers, individualized for each patient, on the mode of action against specific figures, including self-adjustment of drug treatment.

Self-monitoring/Self-titration

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • years or older
  • Diagnosis of hypertension of any origin
  • Systolic blood pressure (SBP) \> 145 or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) \> 90 mm Hg at baseline
  • Voluntarily participation in the study and having signed the corresponding informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Inability to understand and/or perform self-adjustment of the medication, including dementia or significant cognitive impairment (at the discretion of the investigator performing the recruitment).
  • History of orthostatic hypotension (fall\> 20 mm Hg in SBP after adopting the orthostatic position).
  • SBP\> 200 or DBP\> 100 mm Hg on the baseline examination
  • Being on treatment with more than 4 antihypertensive drugs
  • Participation in another study on high blood pressure or in a clinical trial
  • Presence of tremor or neurological disease that makes it difficult to perform BP self-measurement.
  • Presence of arrhythmia
  • Presence of terminal illness
  • Chronic disability impeding to leave home
  • History of acute cardiovascular event in the last 3 months
  • Hypertension managed directly by specialist physicians outside the primary care setting.
  • Spouse selected for the study
  • Non-resident or transient patients
  • Pregnancy
