SMBP Study: Improving High Blood Pressure in Older Adults With Multiple Chronic Diseases
This study is looking at ways to better manage high blood pressure (hypertension) in older adults who also have other long-term health conditions. It compares two approaches: self-measured blood pressure (SMBP) with regular clinical support, and SMBP with extra support from a clinical pharmacist. The main goal is to see if the pharmacist-supported group has a greater drop in their systolic blood pressure (the top number in a blood pressure reading) after 12 months. You might be able to join if you are at least 65 years old, have a systolic blood pressure of 145 mmHg or higher, and have been seen in a clinic in the last year. The study plans to enroll 930 participants.
