Brief Summary

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

This is a double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial assessing the effectiveness of personalized isometric handgrip device therapy. Approximately 230 patients who present with a Systolic Blood Pressure reading of ≤ 149mmHg and who have not taken any antihypertensive medication for more than 30 days will be enrolled.

Detailed Description

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

This study is designed to examine the effectiveness of individualized isometric handgrip device therapy in prehypertension or hypertension patient subjects who are not at target BP and who are naive to anti-hypertensive medication for at least 30 days before screening. The investigational plan examines changes in blood pressure (BP) in up to 230 patient subjects who are randomized to either the "active" (i.e., the Zona Plus device proposed for marketing), or to a "sham" device (which is intentionally calibrated for a "weaker grip").

Study Groups

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

Zona Plus - Active - "Normal Grip"

Using the Zona Plus Device, the patient will perform a twelve-minute isometric handgrip therapy session at approximately the same time each day . After an initial handgrip strength assessment (the session calibration), a two-minute isometric routine is performed four times, two sessions per hand, with a one-minute non-grip, or rest session between each isometric routine.

Intervention Type DEVICE

Zona Plus 3.0 Individualized Isometric Handgrip Therapy Device

Control Device - Sham - "Weaker Grip"

Using the Zona Sham Control Device the patient will perform a twelve-minute isometric handgrip therapy session at approximately the same time each day. After an initial handgrip strength assessment (the calibration), a two-minute isometric routine is performed four times, two sessions per hand, with a one-minute non-grip, or rest session between each isometric routine.

•\>10 mmHg difference in Systolic Blood Pressure between the right and left arms collected during screening
* Unstable Blood Pressure, defined as \>5 mmHg variance between any two (2) consecutive weekly readings (with a maximum of four (4) attempts) to determine a baseline BP measurement
* Arm circumference greater than 45cm

* Concurrent participation in an investigational clinical study that has not completed the follow-up period or planned participation in another study within the next six(6) months
* Any condition or personal circumstance that, in the judgment of the investigator, might interfere with the collection of complete, good quality data or the completion of the research study
* Currently own or have owned another Zona Plus device and are,or have been,voluntarily performing the isometric handgrip activities.
