ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called the Hypertension Registry, aims to study high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, in Morocco. Researchers want to understand the different types of hypertension, its complications, and how to personalize treatment for patients. They will collect health information from patients aged 18 and older who have been diagnosed with hypertension. This data will include details like weight, height, blood pressure readings, and tests for blood sugar and cholesterol levels. The goal is to improve the quality of care that patients receive in primary healthcare settings by comparing current practices with guidelines from professional organizations.

To participate in the study, individuals need to be over 18 years old and have specific blood pressure readings that indicate hypertension. They must also agree to have their data included in the registry. Participants can expect to provide their health information through a secure system, and their privacy will be protected. This study is important because it will help identify gaps in current care for hypertension and suggest better ways to manage this common condition, ultimately aiming to improve health outcomes for patients in Morocco.
