NCT ID NCT05180045
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a program where people with slightly high blood pressure use a home monitor and get support from a community health worker. The goal is to see if this helps keep blood pressure from rising to dangerous levels. About 600 adults from 20 health centers are taking part for 12 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Home blood pressure monitor and community health worker visits
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical way to help people keep their blood pressure in a healthy range without medication.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral intervention, not a drug, so results depend on patient adherence. The study is still ongoing and it's unclear if the approach will work in all communities.
