Summary

Current clinic-based hypertension (HTN) management models have several limitations, resulting in episodic care that does not adequately support patients' self-care skills, and fails to achieve blood pressure (BP) control.

Detailed description

Telemedicine management of HTN (TM-HTN) can augment and overcome challenges by allowing more support for patients' HTN self-care skills, providing multiple home Blood Pressure values and overcoming failure to appropriately intensify treatment. TM-HTN consists of 1) home BP monitoring, 2) home BP based pharmacotherapy, and 3) telemedicine-based self-management support.

BEHAVIORAL	Usual Care	This includes usual clinic based HTN care using routinely available clinic resources (e.g., community health worker, social worker).
