The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether group care—where patients meet together with health workers for education and check-ups—can improve control of high blood pressure and diabetes in Nepal. Over 1,100 adults from 37 health facilities will be assigned to standard care, low-intensity group care, or high-intensity group care. The goal is to see if group care leads to better blood pressure and blood sugar levels after 6 and 12 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
group care model (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that group care is an effective and affordable way to manage chronic diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes in low-resource communities.
What could go wrong
This is an implementation trial, not a test of a new drug. The results may not apply to other settings, and the improvements in health outcomes might be modest.
