E3 Multidisciplinary Team

E3 Self-Guided Hypertension Education Program
BehavioralPatients will receive timed, mailed educational materials on hypertension self-monitoring, diet and lifestyle modifications to supplement usual clinic-based hypertension care with their primary care doctor. A research assistant will ensure patients have home blood pressure monitors on enrollment, and will remind patients to check their blood pressures and follow-up with their primary care doctors at 3 months and 6 months.
Systolic blood pressure change at 6 months
Percentage of participants with a decrease in systolic blood pressure of at least 10mmHg between pre and post clinic-based blood pressure measurements.
Hypertension control at 9 months
Percentage of participants with hypertension control (BP\< 140/90) at 9 months
