Patient-driven Management of BP in CKD
Pharmacist-guided, Patient-driven Management of High Blood Pressure in CKD: A Novel Approach
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The proposed research will evaluate if patients managing their blood pressure medications under the guidance of a clinical pharmacist works better to lower blood pressure than patients monitoring their blood pressure at home and the standard care. 60 Veterans with chronic kidney disease (CKD) will be included in the study. The study will further evaluate factors that may influence the Veteran to accept the self-management approach and what factors in the VHA healthcare system affect the implementation of the self-management approach.
