Correlates and Control of Blood Pressure Variability
Sponsor: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
Summary
The purpose the research is to prospectively demonstrate agreement between EHR and ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM) derived blood pressure variability (BPV), as well as the feasibility of reducing BPV using a data-driven pharmacotherapeutic approach. To this end, this is a feasibility study that will make use of the Cedars-Sinai Health System including the Medical Delivery Network and the clinics of all practitioners who use the same EHR.

Low BPV Regimen
Each the patients' physician will invite patients to complete a 48-hour ABPM, then undergo cross-titration from their current antihypertensive regimen to a low BPV regimen, consisting of Amlodipine and Indapamide. Study staff will suggest to the treating physician to initially start patients on Amlodipine 5mg daily, with uptitration to 10mg daily to a goal systolic blood pressure (SBP)\<130 mmHg. Indapamide will be suggested to be added at 1.25mg daily and increased to 2.5mg daily, as needed to meet target SBP. Other antihypertensive medications will be suggested to be discontinued as the SBP target is reached. Patients not meeting target SBP on maximally tolerated Amlodipine and Indapamide will be suggested to have a long acting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)/ angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) added to their therapy. Patients will complete another 48-hour ABPM after 1 week at target SBP on the low-BPV regimen.
