Hypertension is the term used to describe high blood pressure.
Blood pressure is a measurement of the force against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body.
Many factors can affect blood pressure, including:
How much water and salt you have in your body
The condition of your kidneys, nervous system, or blood vessels
The levels of different body hormones
Most of the time, there are no symptoms. For most patients, high blood pressure is found when they visit their health care provider or have it checked elsewhere.
Tests may be done to look for:
High cholesterol levels
Heart disease, such as an echocardiogram or electrocardiogram
Kidney disease, such as a basic metabolic panel and urinalysis or ultrasound of the kidneys
Hypertension Clinical Trials, Hypertension Clinical Research
Hypertension Clinical trials are conducted to collect data regarding the safety and efficacy of new drug and device development. There are several steps and stages of approval in the hypertension clinical trials process before a drug or device can be sold in the consumer market, if ever.
Drug and device testing begins with extensive laboratory research which can involve years of experiments in animals and human cells. If the initial hypertension clinical research is successful, researches send the data to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval to continue research and testing in humans.
Once approved, human testing of experimental drugs and devices can begin and is typically conducted in four phases. Each phase is considered a separate trial and, after completion of a phase, investigators are required to submit their data for approval from the FDA before continuing to the next phase.
