NCT ID NCT06444308
First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study tests whether community health workers, guided by a mobile app and remote doctor oversight, can manage high blood pressure as effectively as a physician. About 460 adults with hypertension in rural Guatemala will receive care from either a health worker with the app or a doctor. The goal is to see if blood pressure control is similar between the two approaches, which could expand access to treatment in underserved areas.
