Predictors of Blood Pressure Control and Associations With Cardiovascular Diseases in Individuals With High Blood Pressure: a CALIBER Study

NCT02285322 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 200000

Last updated 2014-11-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Current guidelines for the clinical management of hypertension in adults recommend to achieve and maintain blood pressure levels of \<140/90 mmHg. However, it is uncertain what proportion of individuals identified with high blood pressure in primary care actually reach blood pressure control, what factors are associated with attainment of control and to what extent blood pressure control attainment is associated with cardiovascular diseases in a contemporary population of individuals diagnosed with high blood pressure.

The aim of this study is to investigate the extent to which patients achieve blood pressure control and associated risk factors, time to attainment of blood pressure control and whether this time is associated with an increased risk of CVD onset, all-cause and cardiovascular disease and end-stage renal disease.
