NCT ID NCT06986746
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a planned awareness program could improve knowledge about preventing hypertensive crises in people already diagnosed with high blood pressure. Thirty-five patients took part, and their knowledge was measured before and two weeks after the program. The goal was to see if teaching patients about warning signs and prevention could help them avoid sudden, severe blood pressure spikes.
