Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study HIPPOCRATE is a prospective open comparative study with a control group.

The objective of this study is to show that an optimization of the caring of non controlled hypertended patients following a CVA (including a preliminary Tensional auto-measure (TAM) at the follow-up visit, an education of the patient with a decision support tree for the generalist and/or a visit in the multidisciplinary AHT department), allow to obtain a better tensional control copared to the usual caring.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study compares the usual follow up of patients seen at a visit three months following the CVA, with a optimised follow up including the tensional auto-measure, the education of the patient and the information of the generalist and the appeal to the AHT multidisciplinary visit for resistant patients, in compliance with the guidelines.

All the hypertended patients able to realise a course of tensional automeasures will be invited to realise a course of tensional auto-measures during three days preceding the visit in the neurology department.

The tensional measures will be performed according the methodology recommended by HAS.

This strategy of caring is conform to the HAS and ESH recommendations regarding the follow up of the hypertended patients.

The hospitalised patients in neurology for CVA are in all cases convocated to the follow up visit three months after the hospitalisation. The patients will be trained in the use of the TAM by the nurse of the neurology depratment before his dropout from the neurology department at the end of hospitalisation.

The systematic use of TAM will allow to identify patients presenting a AHT "white blouse", but too patients presenting masked AHT.

The visit in the neurology department will be performed by the investigators of the neurology department. At the end of this visit, two groups of patients will be identified : patients with a controlled AHT (NI), and patients with a masked or non controlled AHT (MASC + NC).

Patients presenting a controlled AHT or a "white blouse" AHT (NI) will not be randomised. But it will be proposed to them to sign a consent to acquire their agreement to realise a exploitation of their data. This will allow to caracterise better this population of patients.

Patients presenting a masked or non controlled AHT will be invited to participate to the study after signing a consent.

The collection of the consent will be done by the investigators of the neurology department.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intervention group

Group of patients presenting a non controlled AHT or a masked AHT, benefiting from an optimised caring at visit 0.

Group Type OTHER

Auto-measure of the tension by an autotensiometer

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

All hypertended patients able to realise a serie of tensional auto-measures will be invited to realise a serie of tensional auto-measures theree days before the consultation in the neurology department.

The auto-measures will be performed according the methodology recommended by HAS.

Control group

Patients presenting a non controlled AHT(persistent AHT, AHT necessiting an adaptation of the treatment by the generalist) with information of the generalist on the necessity of obtaining the tensional control according the HAS recommendations

Group Type OTHER

Auto-measure of the tension by an autotensiometer

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

All hypertended patients able to realise a serie of tensional auto-measures will be invited to realise a serie of tensional auto-measures theree days before the consultation in the neurology department.

The auto-measures will be performed according the methodology recommended by HAS.
