COACH Trial Summary

This trial will test a clinical app (COACH) to help people with hypertension manage their blood pressure, ultimately improving their heart health.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-100 with high blood pressure, who are patients at a participating clinic and use an online health portal. They must have had multiple recent high BP readings and be recommended by their doctor for home monitoring. Exclusions include pregnancy, secondary hypertension, severe cognitive impairment, life expectancy under 2 years, end stage renal disease or risks from tight BP control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the COACH app's effectiveness in managing blood pressure within primary care settings. Participants will either use the Enhanced COACH CDS Tool designed to integrate home BP data into electronic health records or receive Usual Care with standard support tools.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves using a decision support tool rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to self-monitoring and potential technical issues with the app.
