NCT ID NCT07542587
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether giving primary care doctors detailed feedback on how well they follow treatment guidelines can improve care for patients with high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. Researchers will enroll 324 healthcare providers in Nepal, Mozambique, Tanzania, and China. Half will receive the feedback intervention, and half will not. The study uses 'secret shoppers' (trained actors) to measure how well doctors diagnose and treat these conditions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
audit and feedback (a process where healthcare providers receive structured reports on their performance against guidelines)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show a simple, low-cost way to improve how primary care doctors manage hypertension and diabetes in developing countries.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage implementation study, not a drug trial. The effect may be small or vary across countries, and it does not directly test a new treatment for patients.
