简要总结

There are 65 million Americans and over 8.5 million veterans who have been diagnosed with hypertension; yet only 31% of all hypertensive patients have their blood pressure (BP) under effective control (less than 140/90 mm/Hg). Uncontrolled hypertension greatly increases the risk of cerebral vascular accidents, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, renal failure, congestive heart failure, and mortality. Despite the damaging impact of hypertension and the availability of well-defined therapies and widely accepted target values for BP, interventions to improve BP control have had limited success.

Description Background:

There are 65 million Americans and over 8.5 million veterans who have been diagnosed with hypertension; yet only 31% of all hypertensive patients have their blood pressure (BP) under effective control (<140/90 mm/Hg). Uncontrolled hypertension greatly increases the risk of cerebral vascular accidents, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, renal failure, congestive heart failure, and mortality. Despite the damaging impact of hypertension and the availability of well-defined therapies and widely accepted target values for BP, interventions to improve BP control have had limited success.

Objectives:

The study is one of the first to compare three interventions designed to improve BP control: a behavioral educational intervention, an evidence-based medication management intervention, and combined intervention for patients with poor BP control defined by home BP monitoring. The primary hypotheses are: 1) Patients who receive only the behavioral intervention will show improved rates of BP control as compared to the control group over 18 months of follow-up; 2) Patients who receive only the hypertension medication management intervention will show improved rates of BP control as compared to the control group over 18 months of follow-up; and, 3) Patients who receive the combined intervention will show higher rates of BP control as compared to all other patients over the 18 months of follow-up.

结局指标

主要结局

Estimated Percentage of Participants in Blood Pressure Control at Baseline

时间窗: Baseline

When patients had multiple blood pressure readings during their baseline visit, means of their systolic and diastolic readings were used as the baseline blood pressure values; Using Joint National Committee 7 Report (JNC7) blood pressure guidelines for BP control: \<140/90mmHg for non-diabetic patients and \< 130/80mmHg for diabetic patients

Estimated Percentage of Participants in Blood Pressure Control at 6 Months

时间窗: 6month

When patients had multiple blood pressure readings during their 6 month visit, means of their systolic and diastolic readings were used as the 6 month blood pressure values; Using Joint National Committee 7 Report (JNC7) blood pressure guidelines for BP control: \<140/90mmHg for non-diabetic patients and \< 130/80mmHg for diabetic patients

Estimated Percentage of Participants in Blood Pressure Control at 12 Months

时间窗: 12 month

When patients had multiple blood pressure readings during their 12 month visit, means of their systolic and diastolic readings were used as the 12 month blood pressure values; Using Joint National Committee 7 Report (JNC7) blood pressure guidelines for BP control: \<140/90mmHg for non-diabetic patients and \< 130/80mmHg for diabetic patients

Estimated Percentage of Participants in Blood Pressure Control at 18 Months

时间窗: 18 month

When patients had multiple blood pressure readings during their 18 month visit, means of their systolic and diastolic readings were used as the 18 month blood pressure values; Using Joint National Committee 7 Report (JNC7) blood pressure guidelines for BP control: \<140/90mmHg for non-diabetic patients and \< 130/80mmHg for diabetic patients

Blood Pressure Averages Systolic & Diastolic

时间窗: 12-month

Blood pressure measured at 12 month. BP control estimates are marginalized probabilities with corresponding 95% confidence intervals derived from a logistic mixed effects regression model.
