HYPERTENSION
Details on the development of the implementation strategy using the BCW have previously been published.Practices randomized to the usual care control condition continued to screen for hypertension according to their usual practice without the benefit of the implementation strategy. Patients from these practices could be referred for ABPM by their clinicians, but no special education, training, or EHR support was provided to promote ABPM, and as the ABPM services were new, there was little clinician awareness of these services at usual care practices.
