Summary
This trial compares two treatments to see which is more effective. Results are analyzed from two groups of people.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 30-90 with high blood pressure who own a smartphone and are currently on no more than two blood pressure medications. They must be able to increase the dosage or add at least two types of certain blood pressure drugs, and speak English or Spanish. People can't join if they're pregnant, have specific heart or kidney conditions, recently had a heart attack or stroke, were hospitalized for severe hypertension, or had an organ transplant.
What is being tested?
The study compares a digital system that helps manage high blood pressure against the usual care methods. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of these two groups in this parallel-design trial to see which is more effective at controlling their condition.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves standard hypertension treatments compared with digital management tools rather than new medications, side effects may not apply as typically seen in drug trials but could include issues related to medication adjustments.
