RECRUITING

BRIDGE: Blood Pressure Reduction and Intervention Delivery Via Group Engagement

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 investigators want to improve care for people who have had a stroke. High blood pressure is the leading cause for having a second stroke and can lead to poor brain health. The goal of this study is to compare two new ways of lowering blood pressure. The first way is to help people check their blood pressure at home. The second way is to bring people together and learn about blood pressure in a group setting. The study team thinks that using both methods together will make it easier to lower blood pressure after a stroke. The study team needs this study to test these two methods together in people who have had a stroke. The investigators believe this is an important study because having high blood pressure makes having another stroke very likely. Therefore, the investigators want to lower blood pressure in people with strokes to keep their brains as healthy as possible and to help with stroke recovery.

Official Title

A Hybrid Type 1 Randomized Trial for Improved Post-Stroke Hypertension: This Study Aims to Examine the Impact of Group Medical Visits and Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Versus Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Alone on the the Impact of Hypertension in Those With Recent Stroke.
