How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Health Services Research
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Usual Care
Experimental: Self-Management / MTM via Health IT
Stroke survivors are trained to measure and enter BP into an online health management tool

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of blood pressure control into guideline recommended ranges
Time Frame: 3 months
The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association (AHA/ASA) have cited the JNC-7 in their guidelines to define normal blood pressure as < 120/80. We will use these guidelines and examine rates (percentage of subjects) of blood pressure control in intervention vs. usual care group.
3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Medication Compliance
Time Frame: 3 months
Percent of subjects who have discontinued one or more of the blood pressure medications on their own (i.e. without medical direction) in the intervention vs. usual care group.
3 months
Use of online tool
Time Frame: 3 months
Ease of online health management tool use will be operationalized as the percent of subjects in the intervention group who measure their BP and enter it online at least 75% of the study period, 50% of the study period and those with 25% or less of the study period.
3 months
