NCT ID NCT06227884
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether a specially trained nurse (Advanced Practice Nurse) could help people with high blood pressure get it under control. Over 480 adults with essential hypertension received either usual care or an extra nurse visit that included health education, medication planning, and checkups. The goal was to see if this extra support leads to better blood pressure readings.
