Brief Summary: BP-MAP is a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to compare the effectiveness of BP lowering from a clinic-based quality improvement program with Full Support (dedicated practice facilitation) vs. a Self-Guided version of the program. The American Medical Association (AMA) developed the framework for the interventions.
Detailed Description: BP-MAP is a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to compare the effectiveness of BP lowering from a clinic-based quality improvement program with Full Support (dedicated practice facilitation) vs. a Self-Guided version of the program. The American Medical Association (AMA) developed the framework for the interventions. The trial will be conducted within the National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network (PCORnet) that enables distributed querying of electronic health record data in a common data model. The primary outcome will be change in clinic-level blood pressure (BP) control at 6 months. Secondary outcomes will include other blood pressure (BP) control metrics, other time points (12 and 18 months), and process measures such as BP measurement accuracy, medication intensification, and average systolic blood pressure (SBP) reduction after a medication intensification, and repeat visit within 4 weeks after a visit with elevated BP. The investigators hypothesize clinics randomized to the Full Support version will achieve a larger increase from baseline in the proportion of their hypertensive patients with controlled BP at 6 months as compared to clinics randomized to the Self-Guided version, and also as compared with usual care. The investigators will also conduct non-randomized comparisons of BP control in the Full Support and Self-Guided intervention arms to BP control in non-participating "Usual Care" institutions in PCORnet. This study was submitted to the IRB at UCSF, determined to be quality improvement and exempt from further review.
