Phone calls from nurses aim to tame high blood pressure in women
NCT ID NCT03963934
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a 6-month program of nurse-led phone calls could help women with uncontrolled high blood pressure take their medication as prescribed. The program included 7 phone calls to address barriers to medication adherence. Only 14 women enrolled before the study was terminated early, so the results are not conclusive.

- nurse-led telephone follow-up program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that personalized phone support helps women with high blood pressure stick to their medication and lower their blood pressure.
- What could go wrong
- This was a very small feasibility study that was terminated early, so results are limited. It is not a treatment itself and may not work in larger, more diverse groups.
