Facilitators and Barriers to Integrating Patient-Generated Blood Pressure Data into Primary Care EHR Workflows.

ABSTRACT:

Background

 Evidence supports using patient-generated blood pressure data for better outcomes in hypertension management. However, obstacles like dealing with home-generated paper data sets and questions of validity slowed the meaningful incorporation of home blood pressure into clinical care. As clinicians value patient data more, reliance on digital health solutions for data collection and shared decision-making grows.

Objectives

 The purpose of this study is to evaluate the design and early implementation of an electronic health record (EHR)-based data visualization tool and explore the barriers or facilitators to integrating) patients' home blood pressure data into the electronic workflow in the clinical setting. Findings can inform potential next steps for implementatio
