Optimizing Sustainable Cuff Access and Training Pathways for Self-Measured Blood Pressure Monitoring in Primary Care

Sponsored by Wake Forest University Health Sciences

About this study

The goal of this study is to identify what cuff delivery and BP log return modality most effectively achieve successful delivery of a self-measured blood pressure (SMBP) intervention in routine care, among adult primary care patients with uncontrolled hypertension?

The study team developed a clinical integration package as a multicomponent primary care-based approach to increase SMBP adoption through structured workflows, patient training, blood pressure logs, reminders/support, and clinical follow-up. Pilot work demonstrated that SMBP uptake can be significantly improved in underserved primary care settings. However, the pilot relied on research funds to purchase cuffs, which is not sustainable for health-system scale. A scalable model must identify practical pathways for patients to obtain standard validated blood pressure cuffs through routine care mechanisms, including vendor-supported, insurance-billed, consignment, or mail-order pathways, without depending on research-purchased devices. In addition to cuff access, effective SMBP implementation…

Only the research team can confirm whether you qualify. The intake questionnaire is the best way to find out.

Completing a questionnaire on Clinably does not enroll you in a clinical trial or confirm your eligibility. Only the research team can determine whether you qualify to participate. These results are based on the information you provide and are intended to help you start a conversation with the research team.
