Hypertension Clinical Trials — Amavita Research

Cardiovascular trial site for hypertension, conducted at amavita Heart and Vascular Health® in North Miami Beach, FL.

All therapeutic areas

Hypertension affects nearly half of U.S. adults and remains the leading modifiable risk factor for stroke, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. Many patients remain uncontrolled despite three or more antihypertensive medications, which is the population most modern hypertension trials are designed for. Here is what Amavita Research is currently running in this space.
