No interventions assigned to this group
Nurse-led blood pressure clinic
Patients randomly allocated to the intervention will be invited to a specialist nurse-led blood pressure clinic.
Nurse-led blood pressure clinic
Blood pressure will be measured according to protocol.For patients with blood pressure above optimal targets, treatment changes will be discussed with the patient, a visiting consultant physician and the patient's GP. If they agree, the GP will intensify anti-hypertensive treatment with monthly follow up by the specialist nurse until BP targets are achieved.
