Summary

This trial compares 2 methods of BP monitoring over 6 months to see which is more effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 21-80 with high blood pressure, who are patients of Providence Health, own a smartphone with data plan, and can attend two in-person visits. They must not have severe kidney disease, certain heart conditions or be on specific treatments that affect blood pressure.
What is being tested?
The CHANGE-BP study compares continual monitoring using the Aktiia cuffless BP system and app against routine home monitoring with a standard arm cuff. The goal is to see which method better manages high blood pressure over six months.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort from wearing the devices or skin irritation due to materials like silicone in the Aktiia bracelet. However, these devices are generally considered safe and non-invasive.
