ABSTRACT:

Importance

A workplace-based intervention could be an effective approach to managing high blood pressure (BP). However, few studies to date have addressed hypertension control among the Chinese working population.

Objective

To assess the effect of a workplace-based, multicomponent intervention strategy on improving BP control.
