NCT02898584

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of the use of a mobile pharmacist-led intervention that incorporates home BP monitoring and medication reminders with patients recruited from a primary care setting, as well as identify challenges and potential solutions to broader implementation of a mobile pharmacist-led home-based BP monitoring intervention in primary care clinics through key stakeholder interviews.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in blood pressure

    from baseline to 12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in medication adherence as measured by the Adherence to Refills and Medications Scale (ARMS)

    from baseline to 12 weeks

Study Arms (1)

BP Track

OTHER

The study participants will be asked to monitor their blood pressure twice daily at home for twelve weeks, and sync the data to the mobile intervention so that a clinical pharmacist can review and incorporate the data into ongoing hypertension management.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Have a smart phone compatible with mobile intervention
  • Have been previously diagnosed with hypertension
  • Have uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \> 140 and/or diastolic blood pressure \> 90 on repeat measurement)
  • Be under the care of a primary care physician at the recruitment clinic
  • Be taking at least one antihypertensive medication
  • Be English speaking

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients under the care of a clinical pharmacist for hypertension management, or under the care of a cardiologist
  • Pregnant patients and anyone with the following unrelated, but serious medical conditions will also be excluded, as they may make blood pressure control difficult or necessitate frequent hospitalization: previous diagnosis of resistant hypertension; steroid dependent asthma or emphysema; cirrhosis or hepatic failure; stage C or D chronic heart failure; stage IV or V chronic kidney disease; and cancer (terminal or undergoing active chemotherapeutic or radiation therapy)
  • Patients with other serious medical conditions (e.g., stroke, dementia) that may affect their ability to self-monitor blood pressure
