Hypertension-related health inequities are abundant in Black communities as Black individuals are more likely to use the emergency department (ED) for chronic disease-related ambulatory care, which is strongly linked to lower blood pressure (BP) control, diminished awareness of hypertension, and adverse cardiovascular events. To reduce hypertension-related health disparities, we developed MI-BP, a culturally tailored multibehavior mobile health intervention that targeted behaviors of BP self-monitoring, physical activity, sodium intake, and medication adherence in Black individuals with uncontrolled hypertension recruited from ED and community-based setJMIR mHealth and uHealthThe Effect of an mHealth Self-Monitoring Intervention (MI-BP) on Blood Pressure Among Black Individuals With Uncontrolled Hypertension: Randomized Controlled Trial.PMC11245662R01 HL127215Plegue MMcNaughton CMuladore RHutton DRobert LPKim JPark SYChen DDjuric ZBuis LRDawood KKadri RLevy PSen ARichardson CRfalseThe Effect of an mHealth Self-Monitoring Intervention (MI-BP) on Blood Pressure Among Black Individuals With Uncontrolled Hypertension: Randomized Controlled Trial.<h4>Background</h4>Hypertension is one of the most important cardiovascular disease risk factors and affects >100 million American adults.
