Trial Outcomes & Findings for A COmmunity and Tech-Based ApproaCh for Hypertension Self-MANagement (NCT NCT03724487)

NCT ID: NCT03724487

Last Updated: 2022-08-16

Results Overview

The primary outcome was a change (reduction) in both the systolic and diastolic blood pressure from baseline to 12 weeks, in which the 12 weeks mean systolic minus the baseline systolic were calculated. The same for 12 week diastolic BP minus the baseline diastolic BP were calculated for a mean change score. The change score (number) can range from no change (0) to a 10 point reduction in blood pressure.

Measure
Coachman
The first study condition, A COmmunity and Tech-Based ApproaCh for Hypertension Self-MANagement (COACHMAN) will be exposed to three Technology-based Interventions (TBI) accessible via smartphone and counseling from a local community nurse organization for hypertension self-management support. Coachman: Coachman is comprised of: TBI and nurse counseling. TBI is comprised of: 1) web-based education modules on hypertension knowledge and skills as well as behavioral lifestyle guidance, (2) Medisafe, a smartphone medication management app to support medication adherence to antihypertensives, and (3) self-monitoring blood pressure. Participants will be exposed to nurse counseling, by registered nurses from the community, affiliated with a local nurse organization that will serve as community health workers (CHWs). The CHWs will provide informal counseling, social support, as well as follow-up phone sessions on medication adherence and monitoring blood pressure.
Enhanced Usual Care
The second study condition, Enhanced Usual Care (EUC) will be exposed to routine and standard hypertension education materials and one session on self-monitoring blood pressure. Enhanced Usual Care (EUC): Standard printed education materials on hypertension management, including content on lifestyle modification and medication-taking will be provided; plus access to one web-based education (video) with information on how to self-monitoring blood pressure.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline and 12 weeks

Population: Per protocol population, completing 12 weeks

The primary outcome was a change (reduction) in both the systolic and diastolic blood pressure from baseline to 12 weeks, in which the 12 weeks mean systolic minus the baseline systolic were calculated. The same for 12 week diastolic BP minus the baseline diastolic BP were calculated for a mean change score. The change score (number) can range from no change (0) to a 10 point reduction in blood pressure.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 12-weeks

Population: Per protocol population, completing the baseline and 12-month visit

Change in PROMIS Global Health-10 score (two subscales- Mental and Physical Health) from baseline to 12 weeks. Raw scores range from 4-20, higher scores represent better health. The change score is calculated as a mean difference between the two scores: at baseline and at 12 weeks. Scores are reported as a change value number, on a continuous number scale, that can be negative or positive (0 to 1, higher number better health).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks

Population: Per protocol population, individuals in the Intervention Group

Achieved Blood Pressure target is defined as the rate of participants that have a blood pressure of at the end of 12 weeks, \< 130 mm Hg for systolic blood pressure and \<80 mmHg diastolic blood pressure, in the intervention group. Percentage of individuals that achieved blood pressure target can range from 0 -100%
