Improving Hypertension Control in Safety-Net Settings: The Boston Hypertension Equity Alliance in Treatment

High blood pressure (BP) or hypertension (HTN) affects over 100 million individuals in the US, increasing the risk of adverse outcomes, including stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Effective therapies include non-pharmacologic approaches and multiple medication classes. Successful HTN management requires ongoing patient engagement for BP monitoring and treatment intensification. Reaching this goal is challenging, and many patients with HTN do not have controlled BP. Using a collaborative partnership between patients, clinicians, health system and public health stakeholders, and the research team the investigators plan to overcome barriers to widespread implementation of evidence-based health system strategies to improve BP control in a large, urban, primary care-based safety-net setting for diverse populations experiencing disparities in HTN-related outcomes.
