Study Summary

The single patient (n-of-1) randomized trial is an underused approach to resolving therapeutic uncertainty by using a patient's own data to inform an individualized treatment plan. The proposed research is designed to assess whether the n-of-1 trial approach improves blood pressure control compared to usual care. This trial aims to advance learning about not only the treatment of pediatric hypertension but also the use of a neglected type of randomized trial to optimize the care of each patient.

Primary Outcome

Blood pressure control is when ambulatory blood pressure is normal, with normal as defined by the American Heart Association (AHA) criteria \[the AHA criteria are systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure (throughout wake and sleep) less than the 95th percentile based on the patient's gender and height\]. To assess ambulatory blood pressure, participants wear a 24-hour blood pressure monitor, which records blood pressure at regular intervals throughout a 24-hour period.

Interventions
