Treatment Summary

Lisinopril is a medication used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and after a heart attack. It is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, which means it helps to reduce the amount of pressure in the blood vessels. It is usually prescribed as the first line of treatment for hypertension, along with diuretics or beta blockers. Lisinopril was approved by the FDA in 1987.

Effectiveness

How Prinivil Affects Patients

Lisinopril works by slowing down the enzyme (angiotensin II) and hormone system (renin angiotensin aldosterone system, or RAAS) that regulate blood pressure and blood flow in the body. It is considered to be very safe, and usually produces long lasting effects when the right dose (10-80mg) is taken daily.

How Prinivil works in the body

Lisinopril works by blocking an enzyme called angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). This enzyme is responsible for turning angiotensin I into angiotensin II. Without ACE, the angiotensin II cannot constrict coronary blood vessels or lead to myocyte hypertrophy or vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. Lisinopril also increases the levels of bradykinin, which has vasodilating effects, and prevents renin from converting angiotensin to angiotensin I.

Prinivil for High Blood Pressure

For the most part, this drug worked very well for me. However, I suddenly had a severe allergic reaction to it about a year in. My tongue started swelling and within an hour I couldn't talk or swallow. Thankfully, I was able to get some relief through IV steroids and antihistamines in the ER, but it took a week of oral steroids and antihistamines to get completely back to normal.

Middle Meningeal Artery Stimulation for Migraine

18 - 100
All Sexes
Galveston, TX

This study is testing a new way to help with migraine headaches. Researchers want to see if it's safe and doable to stimulate a blood vessel in the head (called the middle meningeal artery) with microcatheters and microwires. This has never been done before for migraines and is an investigational treatment that is not part of standard migraine treatment. This stimulation would happen just before giving the standard lidocaine treatment, which is already routinely used for migraines. The goal is to see whether this new step could help improve headache outcomes. Two FDA-cleared medical devices will be used, the Cadwell Cascade 32 PRO and the Cadwell Guardian IONM System, to perform the stimulation and monitoring. In this study, the Cascade 32 PRO will be used in a way that is not part of its usual approved purpose (this is called "off-label" use) to gently deliver electrical pulses through a microcatheter. The Cadwell Guardian IONM System will be used in its normal, FDAapproved way for continuous monitoring during stimulation.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether a community health worker-delivered, multi-component behavioral intervention can improve antihypertensive medication adherence and blood pressure control among adult refugees with hypertension who are prescribed antihypertensive medications. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does participation in the BPCARE intervention improve antihypertensive medication adherence compared to enhanced usual care? 2. Does participation in the BPCARE intervention improve blood pressure control and persistence over time compared to enhanced usual care? Researchers will compare participants randomized to the BPCARE intervention to those receiving enhanced usual care (hypertension information and a home blood pressure monitor) to determine the effects on medication adherence, blood pressure control, and persistence. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to either the BPCARE intervention or enhanced usual care * Receive hypertension education and a home blood pressure monitor * Participate in community health worker-delivered sessions that include hypertension and medication education, motivational interviewing, problem-solving, and action planning (intervention arm only) * Complete questionnaires assessing medication adherence and related psychosocial factors * Have blood pressure monitored using connected home blood pressure devices * Complete pill counts to assess medication adherence over a nine-month follow-up period

Dietary Intervention for Migraine

18 - 75
All Sexes
Washington D.C., United States

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a low-glutamate diet can improve migraine symptoms in adults with migraine and to explore possible biological changes associated with dietary improvement. The study focuses on whether reducing dietary glutamate intake may influence processes involved in migraine, such as brain excitation, inflammation, and oxidative stress. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does following a low-glutamate diet reduce the number of migraine days and the severity and duration of migraine attacks, and improve quality of life? Are improvements in migraine symptoms associated with changes in blood-based biological markers related to migraine activity? Researchers will compare participants assigned to the low-glutamate diet with participants assigned to a wait-list control group to evaluate differences in migraine outcomes and related biological measures. Participants will: Complete a baseline run-in period while tracking headaches using a daily migraine diary Either follow a low-glutamate dietary intervention or continue their usual diet as part of a wait-list control Complete standardized questionnaires related to migraine symptoms and quality of life Provide blood samples for laboratory analyses Undergo neuroimaging assessments (for a subset of participants)

Women Veterans are the fastest growing segment of VA users, with most users in midlife. This dramatic growth has created challenges for VA to ensure that appropriate services are available to meet women Veterans' needs, and that they will want and be able to use those services. Furthermore, few VA improvement efforts have focused on women Veterans' health and health care in midlife. The EMPOWER QUERI 3.0 Program is a cluster randomized type 3 hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial testing two strategies designed to support implementation and sustainment of evidence-based practices for women Veterans in at least 18 VA facilities from 4 regions.

Remote Monitoring for Cardiovascular Disease

18+
All Sexes
Halifax, Canada

The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the implementation, usability, and clinical outcomes of a wearable medical-grade device in a virtual Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) program, titled HEARTS in Sync. The question guiding this study is: Do patient clinical outcomes differ between those who use the CardioWatch 287-2 during the HEARTS in Sync program as compared to those who participate without using the CardioWatch 287-2? The comparison will happen between two non-randomized groups of patients who are enrolled in the HEARTS in Sync virtual CR program. The wearable device (CardioWatch 287-2), worn on patient's wrists, will provide clinicians with physiological information to better mirror the clinical oversight provided to an in-person CR program. Participants who choose to use the device will be asked to wear it daily. The clinical team will review weekly summary reports to help guide participant progress through the 13-week program. The primary objectives of this study are to: 1. Characterize participants (e.g., demographic health history, patient feedback) between those who choose to use the CardioWatch 287-2 device and those who do not. 2. Compare clinical outcomes between users and non-users of the device within the HEARTS in Sync program, by: 1. Tracking patient enrollment, attendance in virtual education sessions, and program completion rates, 2. Evaluating change in patient bloodwork outcomes, 3. Measuring change is physical ability, 4. Analyzing changes in eating behaviours, and 5. Examining quality of life using validated tools. 3. Asses the feasibility of the CardioWatch 287-2 for the HEARTS in Sync virtual CR program by: 1. Assessing device adherence 2. Reviewing patient feedback survey, and 3. Determining if clinician team were able to access and interpret data collected throughout the program The secondary objective of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of device users during the HEARTS in Sync program with patients who completed the on-site CR program. This research aims to better understand how a medical-grade device may improve virtual CR programming to extend clinical care to the community. As a result, this could lead to a more personalized care and better results for patients.

Patients with cancer are at high risk for life-threatening venous thromboembolism (VTE) yet rarely receive anticoagulant prophylaxis due to bleeding risks. Thus, effective prophylaxis in oncology requires a method to reduce VTE without increasing hemorrhage. The primary aim of the Statin Therapy to Prevent Cancer Associated Venous Thromboembolism (STAT-CAT) trial is to test whether rosuvastatin 20 mg daily for 12 months compared to placebo can safely prevent VTE in patients with newly diagnosed or recently relapsed cancer who are at increased thrombotic risk, are not planned to be anticoagulated, and who do not otherwise take statin therapy.
