简要总结
This study aims to compare the efficacy of a social network intervention versus individual hypertension counseling to improve blood pressure control after stroke. The investigators hope to understand whether the involvement of family, friends and other members of individual's social network can help achieve better blood pressure after experiencing a stroke. Participants will be stratified to two groups according to network size (<5 vs 5 or more) and randomized to receive individual hypertension counseling (control) or the social network intervention. The primary outcome of the study will be the absolute reduction in systolic blood pressure at 3 months follow-up. The secondary outcomes will be attainment of a post-stroke hypertension treatment goal and patient-reported physical function.
