Sildenafil Trial of Exercise Performance in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

NCT00517933

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung disease that affects an individual's ability to breathe. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of sildenafil, a medication that increases blood flow to the lungs, at improving breathing function, exercise capacity, and quality of life in people with advanced IPF.

Monetary Incentives and Intrinsic Motivation to Sustain Hypertension Control

NCT01402453

Despite unequivocal proof that tight control of blood pressure with antihypertensive medication can prevent hypertensive complications-including strokes, myocardial infarcts, heart failure, end-stage renal disease, and death- blood pressure remains uncontrolled in the majority of individuals with hypertension. We propose a novel patient-centered intervention that combines monetary incentives and a social psychological intervention to help patients sustain blood pressure control once incentives are no longer offered by strengthening intrinsic motivation to control blood pressure among two vulnerable populations: African Americans, who suffer disproportionately from hypertension, and Mexican Americans, who have the lowest hypertension control rates of any demographic group in the United States. If the intervention is successful, it could be adapted as a set of tools to apply in clinical practice to improve outcomes of a range of chronic diseases, by maximizing the motivation of patients to optimize their treatment.
