Brief Summary:
Background: studies have demonstrated the crucial role of clinical pharmacists as integrated part of heath care team. Not only in Jordan but also in the Middle East region, clinical pharmacy practice is not well established. This current study is the first to evaluate physicians - pharmacists' collaborative approach to uncontrolled blood pressure in Jordan and the Middle East.
Detailed Description:
Objective: this study aimed to evaluate clinical pharmacists' role in the management of uncontrolled hypertensive patients in Jordan. Design: single blinded randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients: 253 patients with uncontrolled hypertension specified as higher blood pressure readings than the recommended goals by the seventh report of the Joint National Committee on prevention, detection, evaluation, and treatment of high blood pressure (JNC VII) at the time of enrollment.
Interventions: patients were randomly allocated to an intervention or control group: 130 and 123 patients, respectively. Patients in both arms were followed up for 6 months. In the intervention group, patients were managed by physician-clinical pharmacist team. In the control group, patients were managed by physician(s) only and were not provided pharmaceutical care services.
