Summary

High blood pressure affects nearly half of Americans, but only half have it under control. This study tested whether a digital program—including personalized health coaching and a connected blood pressure cuff used via smartphone or website—could improve blood pressure control compared to usual care. The trial enrolled 318 adults with hypertension from Stanford Primary Care.
