Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: App-based remote blood pressure monitoringExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Women in this group will receive a Bluetooth-enabled automatic blood pressure cuff that synchs automatically to a smartphone application that incorporates Artificial Intelligence to respond to each recorded measurements with recommended next steps and also document the measurement and response in a secure platform. This affiliated smartphone application will also contain education on hypertension management. Upon receipt of the blood pressure cuff, participants will be instructed to set up the program/app.
Group II: Text-message based remote blood pressure monitoringActive Control1 Intervention
Women in this group will receive current standard of care: remote blood pressure monitoring via text message. Specifically, they will receive automatic blood pressure cuffs, instructions how to obtain their blood pressures and log them into our Electronic Medical Record, and contact information for the nurse practitioner and community health worker managing the program. The NP will respond via text message to each individual measurement with instructions as to next steps.
