In Episode 12, Dr. William Cushman, co-investigator of the 2015 SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention) Trial, joins us for a discussion all about hypertension trials, their long history, and what's ahead for research in this space. Too young to remember SPRINT or looking for a "CliffsNotes" of HTN trials? This episode's for you!
Here's a Renal Fellow Network post from 2017 with a link to a cheat sheet of hypertension clinical trial.
