Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Both hypertension (HTN) and diabetes represent two major risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the number one cause of death globally. Despite the clear evidence that lowering blood pressure (BP) and blood sugar through lifestyle changes and drug treatment can greatly reduce the risk of CVD), HTN-control (defined as the proportion of people who reach their target for BP lowering) and diabetes control (defined as HbA1c<7%) is still poor. This study aims to develop, implement and evaluate a technologically driven model that improves access to care and self-management of hypertension and diabetes at home |
