Summary

This study tests whether home visits from female community health volunteers, combined with regular text messages, can help adults in Pokhara, Nepal, better manage high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and smoking. About 2,070 participants will be split into two groups: one receiving the extra support and one getting usual care. The goal is to see if this approach lowers blood pressure, blood sugar, and smoking rates.
