Стратегии снижения артериального давления для устранения различий в гипертонии

The burden of hypertension and related cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and end-stage kidney disease is disproportionately high in Black populations, especially in the South. The Blood Pressure Lowering Strategies to Eliminate Hypertension Disparities (BLESSED) cluster randomized trial aims to test the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of a community health worker (CHW)-led multifaceted intervention compared to enhanced usual care for hypertension control in Black communities. In the BLESSED trial, the investigators plan to recruit 1,176 adults with hypertension (approximately 28 per church) from 42 predominantly Black churches in the Greater New Orleans area. The multifaceted intervention will last for 18 months, followed by a post-intervention follow-up visit at 24 months. The BLESSED trial aims to generate evidence regarding the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of this CHW-led church-based multifaceted intervention in eliminating hypertension disparities in the United States (US) general population.

Подробное описание

Louisiana residents, especially African Americans, bear a disproportionately high burden of hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In the Blood Pressure Lowering Strategies to Eliminate Hypertension Disparities (BLESSED) cluster randomized trial, the investigators will compare the impact of two implementation strategies - a CHW-led multifaceted strategy and a group-based education strategy - for delivering interventions recommended by the 2017 American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the American Heart Association (AHA) hypertension clinical guidelines on implementation and clinical effectiveness outcomes in predominantly Black community members over 18 months. The BLESSED study utilizes an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design to: (1). test the effectiveness of a CHW-led church-based multifaceted implementation strategy for reducing estimated CVD risk over 18 months among African American church community members at high risk for CVD, and (2). assess the implementation outcomes (acceptability, adaptation, adoption, feasibility, fidelity, penetrance, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability) simultaneously. The Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment (EPIS) framework has guided the development and evaluation of the multifaceted implementation strategy, which includes CHW-led health coaching on lifestyle changes and medication adherence; healthcare delivery in community; church-based exercise and weight loss programs; self-monitoring of blood pressure (BP); and provider education and engagement. The CHW-led church-based intervention will provide strong social support and tackle multiple social determinants of CVD disparities. The primary clinical effectiveness outcome is the difference in mean change of systolic blood pressure (SBP) from baseline to 18 months between intervention and control groups. The primary implementation outcome is a fidelity summary score for key implementation strategy components to the CHW-led church-based multifaceted implementation strategy assessed at the participant levels. This study has 90% statistical power to detect group differences in mean SBP change of 5.8 mm Hg over 18 months using a 2-sided significance level of 0.05. The investigators will recruit 1,176 participants (28 per church) who are aged ≥18 years with systolic blood pressure ≥130 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥80 mm Hg, and randomly assign 21 churches to intervention and 21 to control; the investigators will implement the multifaceted intervention program; the investigators will follow-up participants and collect data on effectiveness and implementation outcomes at 6, 12, and 18 months; the investigators will evaluate the sustainability of the intervention at 6 months post-intervention; and the investigators will perform intention-to-treat analyses and disseminate and scale-up the proven-effective implementation strategy. The proposed study will generate evidence on the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of the multifaceted intervention aimed at eliminating CVD disparities in African American populations in the US.

Экспериментальный: Community health worker-led implementation strategy

CHW-led church-based multifaceted implementation strategy: CHWs will conduct individualized health coaching and healthcare navigation, organize church-based health promotion programs (e.g., nutrition education and exercise sessions), and train and assist the study participants in self-monitoring of BP. Nurse practitioners will see study participants at church settings, and community pharmacies will deliver antihypertensive medications to patients' homes.

The recommended evidence-based interventions include therapeutic lifestyle change and medical treatment of hypertension

Экспериментальный: Group-based Education Strategy

The investigator team will work with church leadership and wellness coordinators to organize group-based education sessions. Health education will be delivered by local primary care providers, dieticians, and health educators. Contact information for primary care providers and information on self-monitoring of BP will also be given at group sessions.

Описание плана IPD

The study data sharing plan will comply with all NIH policies for data sharing. Data sharing will be executed through the centralized NIH data repository and will be implemented in a timely manner. The study data, including data from baseline and follow-up visits, will be prepared for transmission to the NHLBI data repository - the Biologic Specimen and Data Repository Information Coordinating Center (BioLINCC). The datasets will be submitted to the NHLBI no later than three years after the end of the final participant follow-up or two years after the main paper of the trial has been published, whichever comes first. The NHLBI will review the submitted data prior to release. These data will be free of identifiers that allow identification of individual research participants either directly or through "deductive disclosure." In addition, the investigators will offer, through a publicly accessible website, opportunities for outside investigators to collaborate using complete study data.
