Study Summary
The Carter Burden Network (CBN) is an New York City senior services agency, providing vital meal programs for low-income, minority seniors, age 60 and over. In 2016, CBN formed a community-academic partnership with The Rockefeller University (RU) and Clinical Directors Network (CDN) to conduct a Healthy Aging pilot study and found that 84% of participants had high blood pressure, with up to 27% "uncontrolled" using age-adjusted criteria. High blood pressure is a modifiable risk for cardiovascular disease, and has been readily improved in controlled trials by replacement of a typical Western diet with the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet. The DASH diet has been proven to meaningfully reduce blood pressure in as little as 14 days. However, the DASH diet has not been tested in seniors, in the setting of senior centers. Many seniors attending CBN centers receive close to 40% of their daily nutrition through congregate meals served there. This study tests the effectiveness of implementing the DASH-diet through modification of congregate meals at CBN senior centers to align with DASH, while providing educational and behavioral support, including home self-monitoring of blood pressure, to improve self-efficacy related to blood pressure management. The primary outcome is the change in systolic blood pressure.
