Summary

This study aims to see if using a home blood pressure monitor can accurately diagnose high blood pressure in African American teenagers, a group at higher risk. Currently, diagnosis requires multiple doctor visits, which is inconvenient and can be inaccurate. Researchers will compare home readings to the best standard method, a 24-hour wearable monitor, and also gather feedback from teens and parents.
