Summary
This study is testing a chatbot platform called PROMBot that lets people with hypertension report their blood pressure and other health information via text messages. The goal is to see if the chatbot is easy and enjoyable to use, and whether it can help patients stay engaged in their own care. Researchers will interview participants about their experiences and track how often they interact with the chatbot.
