Smart blood test aims to end blood pressure medication guesswork
NCT ID NCT07294794
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a 'smart' blood test can help doctors choose the right blood pressure medication for each person. High blood pressure affects 1 in 3 adults and can lead to strokes or heart attacks. The trial will enroll 400 people across Europe to see if this personalized approach improves blood pressure control better than standard care.
