Official title
A Randomized, ED-based Intervention to Improve Antihypertensive Adherence
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Despite great strides, hypertension remains an incredibly important disease and public health problem. This study addresses this critical need among ED patients, a unique population of patients who are (a) likely to benefit from an antihypertensive adherence intervention due to their high prevalence of uncontrolled blood pressure and poor adherence, and (b) at high risk for poor cardiovascular outcomes. The protocol provides for a multicomponent intervention bundle to be tested among ED patients. Successful clinic-based behavioral interventions generally target a combination of barriers to adherence; bundled interventions have shown success in a wide range of settings and diseases. In some cases, bundled components were necessary to achieve blood pressure benefit in a primary care setting; isolated educational efforts have had mixed success in the ED.
