Impact of Home and Clinical Blood Pressure Variability on Arteriosclerosis and Metabolic Indicators

Status: Recruiting

Intervention Type: Behavioral
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

This observational study investigates the correlation between home blood pressure variability (BPV) and arteriosclerosis, alongside metabolic indicators, in hypertensive patients over a three-year period. The research specifically focuses on the predictive value of home BPV for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure hospitalizations. Utilizing a mobile application called Healthscan for daily BP monitoring, the study aims to enhance the understanding of how BPV impacts cardiovascular and metabolic health in a real-world setting.
