Study protocol: Collaboration Oriented Approach to Controlling High blood pressure (COACH) in adults - a randomised controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Hypertension, the clinical condition of persistent high blood pressure (BP), is preventable yet remains a significant contributor to poor cardiovascular outcomes. Digital self-management support tools can increase patient self-care behaviours to improve BP. We created a patient-facing and provider-facing clinical decision support (CDS) application, called the Collaboration Oriented Approach to Controlling High BP (COACH), to integrate home BP data, guideline recommendations and patient-centred goals with primary care workflows. We leverage social cognitive theory principles to support enhanced engagement, shared decision-making and self-management support. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of the COACH intervention and evaluate its adoption as part of BP man
