Behavioral Intervention
Hula intervention for High Blood Pressure
Recruiting1 award5 criteria
Honolulu, Hawaii
This project is a community-engaged, randomized control trial of hula, the indigenous dance form of Native Hawaiians (NH), among 250 NHs with hypertension living in Hawaii and Washington State. Investigators will compare the effects of a 6-month intervention, called the KaHOLO Program, delivered by trained peer educators to a wait-list control condition on blood pressure and 10-year cardiovascular risk. The intervention will be comprised of hula plus hypertension self-care education program. Investigators will also examine the mediating effects of health behaviors, self-regulation, psychosocial, and socio-cultural factors on blood pressure reduction. The ultimate goal is to develop and test a culturally-appropriate, acceptable, and effective intervention that can be delivered and sustained in community settings.
