RECRUITING

Improving Blood Pressure Control in Stroke Patients by Increasing Access to a Home Blood Pressure Monitor

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether providing teaching with a low-cost device can help to improve blood pressure, health outcomes, patient self-efficacy without exacerbating inequity between advantaged and disadvantaged patients. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: 1. Does providing a free home blood pressure cuff improve control of hypertension? 2. Does providing a free home blood pressure cuff have a greater impact on control of hypertension in disadvantaged populations? 3. Does improved control of home blood pressure decrease adverse patient outcomes? Participants will be asked to * Take their blood pressure at home and records the results * Participate in follow-up phone calls from investigators at at 3 and 6 months Researchers will compare patients provided with home blood pressure monitors to those who are provided with routine education
