About this study
Official title: Telephone-Based Patient Outreach to Improve Self-Measured Blood Pressure Log Utilization in Chronic Hypertension: A Pragmatic Quality Improvement Randomized Implementation Trial
The Telephone-Based Patient Outreach to Improve Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) in Chronic Hypertension study is a pragmatic, randomized, open-label quality improvement implementation trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured telephone outreach intervention in increasing the proportion of patients with chronic hypertension who present to clinic visits with a completed home blood pressure log compared to the receipt of usual primary care services over a 90-day period. The study aims to address the inconsistent integration of HBPM-an evidence-based strategy endorsed by major guidelines to improve diagnostic accuracy and longitudinal management-into routine primary care workflows where no standardized educational or documentation process currently exists. Patients with documented chronic uncontrolled hypertension, defined as three documented readings exceeding 130/80 mmHg, are eligible for participation. Typically, patients at this academic primary care practice lack a standardized process for receiving education on home monitoring or a dedicated mechanism for documenting logs, which can lead to therapeutic inertia and missed opportunities to optimize treatment. The intervention is designed around a structured telephone outreach program led by medical students using a standardized script to provide direct patient education on the clinical value of HBPM and to encourage the completion and presentation of BP logs during subsequent primary care visits.

This arm utilizes a maximum of two call attempts per patient with no voicemail messages left to determine if a simple, low-resource reminder can influence patient behavior.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
HBPM Log Adherence
The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with a documented home blood pressure log in the electronic health record (EHR). A "documented log" was operationally defined as any notation in the medical record indicating that a patient presented with, reported, or submitted home blood pressure readings, whether through a scanned paper log, free-text documentation in a clinical note, or an entry in a structured data field
Measured: Adherence was measured at follow-up within a 90-day window of the intervention.
Secondary outcomes (1)
Change in Blood Pressure
The secondary outcomes consisted of the mean change in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. These clinical metrics were selected to evaluate the impact of the HBPM intervention on objective blood pressure control
Measured: The most recent follow-up measurement recorded within a 90-day window of the intervention.
