Study Arms (2)
Clevidipine Butyrate Injection
EXPERIMENTALNcardipine Hydrochloride Injection
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
Initiate the intravenous infusion of Clevidipine Butyrate Injection at 2 mg/hour. The dose should be doubled every 3 minutes in the first 30 minutes if the desired blood pressure reduction (≥15% and ≤25%) is not achieved and the maximum dose is 32 mg/hour. The infusion duration should be at least 12 hours and less than 72 hours. Oral antihypertensive drugs should be given at about 2 hours before stopping infusion.
Dilute the Ncardipine Hydrochloride Injection to 0.1mg/ml. Initiate the intravenous infusion at 0.5μg/(kg•min). A 0.5-1μg/(kg•min) dose should be added every 3 minutes in the first 30 minutes if the desired blood pressure reduction (≥15% and ≤25%) is not achieved and the maximum dose is 6μg/(kg•min). The infusion duration should be at least 12 hours and less than 72 hours. Oral antihypertensive drugs should be given at about 2 hours before stopping infusion.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 75, regardless of gender.
- Blood pressure increased seriously in a short time, systolic blood pressure (SBP) \> 180 mmHg and (or) diastolic blood pressure (DBP) \> 120 mmHg (measured at an interval of 5 minutes, both blood pressure values should be \> 180 / 120 mmHg), accompanied with progressive target organ damages as below or evidences of other target organ damage can be confirmed:
- Hypertensive encephalopathy: headache, dizziness, irritability, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision and other symptoms;
- Acute left heart failure: dyspnea, pulmonary rales, edema and other symptoms;
- Unstable angina pectoris: ischemic chest pain with ST-T dynamic changes. Patients with SBP ≥ 220mmhg and / or DBP ≥ 140mmHg should be considered as hypertensive emergency;
- The legal representative and / or patient agree to participate in this clinical trial and sign an informed consent form.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with arterial dissection, acute hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke, and acute coronary syndrome in urgent need of surgical or emergency intervention;
- Patients with severe aortic stenosis or severe mitral stenosis;
- Patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy;
- Patients who have used other intravenous antihypertensive drugs within 2 hours before entering this study;
- Patients known to be intolerant or allergic to calcium channel blockers, or allergic to test drug ingredients, or allergic to soy / soy products or egg / egg products;
- Patients with lipid metabolism defects, such as pathological hyperlipidemia, lipid nephropathy, or acute pancreatitis with hyperlipidemia;
- Combined with other serious organ injury or serious complications which may affect the life of the subjects;
- Patients with a history of mental illness;
- Patients with known history of alcohol / drug abuse;
- Those who have participated in other clinical trials and used test drugs 3 months before the trial;
- Pregnant and lactating women;
- Researchers do not consider it appropriate to participate in the clinical trial.
