Overview
This study seeks to evaluate the impact of a remote patient monitoring (RPM)-specific tech-enabled community health worker workforce on the use of RPM for the management of hypertension among Latinx patients. This study is a step-wedge randomized controlled trial that aims to assess the effectiveness and implementation of RPM-enabled community health workers (CHWs) compared to standard of care RPM hypertension management on blood pressure reduction and evaluate the implementation of the RPM-enabled CHWs for hypertension (HTN) management. The study aims to examine adoption, acceptability, fidelity, cost, sustainability, and equity as outcomes of implementation effectiveness.
Interventions
- Behavioral Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)-enabled Community Health Worker (CHW) Support
CHWs will implement RPM by being provided with training modules and implementing electronic health record (EHR) support tools for HTN management.
Primary outcome measures
- Change in systolic blood pressure [Time frame: Baseline, Month 18]
- Change in diastolic blood pressure [Time frame: Baseline, Month 18]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Rate of hypertension control [Time frame: Month 18]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Self-identify as Latinx
- Be fluent in English or Spanish
- Be age 18 years or older
- Receiving care at one of the 10 safety-net primary care clinics
- Have uncontrolled HTN documented in the electronic health record (EHR) on at least two visits in the past year (defined as an average BP ≥ 140/90 mmHg)
- Have been prescribed at least one anti-hypertensive medication and be non-adherent to their medications, defined as adherence <80% in the preceding 12 months, as determined by prescription orders obtained from the clinic EHR.
Exclusion criteria
- Being deemed unable to comply with the study protocol (either self-selected or by indicating during screening that s/he could not complete all requested tasks)
- Participation in other hypertension-related clinical trials
- Have significant psychiatric comorbidity or reports of substance abuse (as documented in the EHR)
- Plan to discontinue care at the clinic within the next 15 months
