Nurse-led Program Efficacy on Blood Pressure Control

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The diagnosis and control of hypertension depend on accurate measurements of blood pressure (BP); alternative approaches to measuring BP, such as ambulatory blood pressure monitoring or home blood-pressure self-measurement (HBPM), are gaining increasing acceptance in the diagnosis of hypertension and the monitoring of hypertensive patients.To achieve accurate BP measurements at home, measurement guidelines must be closely followed. However, previous studies have shown that patient compliance is in most cases unsatisfactory.The study aims at evaluating the efficacy of a family nurse (FN)-led home blood pressure management (HBPM) training program in improving BP control based on a comparison with routine care and management.

Clinical Trial Description

The quality of HBPM was found to be higher in patients who received some form of training in BP measurement from healthcare professionals than in patients who did not receive training. Although self-estimation of BP may be prone to error, this risk can be minimized through adequate patient education and training that includes simple but nonetheless important recommendations. However, unclear is whether specific training offered by nurses, who frequently have a close relationship with their hypertensive patients, could result higher patient adherence to HBPM recommendations. Therefore, we assume that a specifically tailored training program conducted by a family nurse (FN), when provided in addition to usual care, could improve patient adherence to HBPM recommendations. Study design: single-blind, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. ;
