Study Summary
Online interactive spaced education (ISE) is a novel educational methodology based on the "spacing effect", the psychological finding that repeated presentations of educational material over spaced intervals increase learning efficiency and improve knowledge retention. ISE is delivered using periodic emails that contain clinical case scenarios and multiple-choice question. The investigators recently completed a randomized trial involving 95 VISN 1 primary care providers (PCPs) which demonstrated that an ISE intervention can significantly improve clinician's practice patterns. Those clinicians randomized to the ISE intervention on prostate cancer screening demonstrated a 26% relative reduction in inappropriate screening. The investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled trial involving PCPs in VISN 1 to determine whether ISE can (1) increase knowledge of the appropriate treatment of hypertensive patients, (2) reduce clinical inertia in hypertension management, and (3) improve the blood pressure control in hypertensive patients. Anticipated Impacts on Veterans' Healthcare: This study aims to demonstrate that online interactive spaced education (ISE) can improve providers' care of patients with hypertension. ISE is the type of intervention that can be deployed across the VHA with content tailored to meet specific needs and can be implemented as a tool to improve performance measures and clinical outcomes
Primary Outcome
A unique hypertensive period served as the unit of analysis. A hypertensive period started on the first day during the study when a patient's BP was elevated. It ended on the first subsequent day when it was \<140/90 mm Hg or on the last day BP was recorded during the study. Duration of the hypertensive period (days) was the outcome measure. BP measurements obtained in the course of routine care were used to ascertain study outcomes, whether obtained by the PCP or at other clinic visits. These m
