Study Summary
African-American men suffer more than most other groups from hypertension (HTN) but often have less access and less contact with doctors. Previous work by the study's Principal Investigator in Dallas, Texas, and Altadena, California, showed that barbershops are an excellent place to identify black men with high blood pressure and to enlist the aid of their barbers as healthcare extenders. The purpose of this study in Metro Los Angeles (LA) is to compare two types of barber-based patient-centered blood pressure programs to see which type is more effective in improving the customers' high blood pressure. One type emphasizes blood pressure medication and the other type emphasizes lifestyle modification for high blood pressure.
Interventions
