Can group support and home monitoring tame Post-Stroke blood pressure?
NCT ID NCT07091851
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two ways to help stroke survivors control their blood pressure: home monitoring alone versus home monitoring plus group medical visits. High blood pressure is the leading cause of a second stroke, so the goal is to find a better method to keep blood pressure in check. The trial will enroll 50 people who have had a mild to moderate stroke and have high blood pressure.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- group medical visits and home blood pressure monitoring
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could offer a practical, low-cost way to lower blood pressure after a stroke and reduce the chance of having another stroke.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so its impact may be modest.
