Actual (reported)About 22% of Canadians have high blood pressure, or hypertension. However, studies have shown that only 1 out of 5 people with hypertension have their blood pressure controlled. Diabetes is also an important risk factor for heart disease and stroke. About half of people with diabetes also have hypertension - a deadly combination. Studies have shown that only about 1 in 10 people with diabetes have their blood pressure controlled adequately - clearly something needs to be done to improve this. Heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and diabetes are conditions that occur in the community, so we need to explore innovative solutions that will work in the community. Pharmacists are well-placed in the community to help identify people with diabetes and hypertension. This has worked very well in previous studies in patients with high cholesterol levels. Pharmacists and nurses have complementary skills which, when working as a team, may help identify and better manage hypertension in people with diabetes. Our main objective is to test whether a community pharmacist and nurse team can improve blood pressure control in people with diabetes and hypertension.
