Innovative Approaches to Hypertension Management in High-Risk Emergency Department Populations (NCT07539597)
Innovative Approaches to Hypertension Management in High-Risk Emergency Department Populations: A Feasibility Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This single-center, single-arm quasi-experimental study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a community health worker (CHW)-led intervention to address social determinants of health (SDOH) among emergency department patients with hypertension. At enrollment, participants (N=15) will complete standardized SDOH surveys in REDCap, and CHWs will facilitate referrals to local community-based organizations that address identified social needs. With participant consent, the study will also include medical record review through EPIC and Healthix to evaluate healthcare utilization-including emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and outpatient encounters-during the one-year period before and after the index ED visit.
