Does addressing clinical inertia through physician reminders, ambulatory BP monitoring, and educational interventions improve blood pressure control in hypertension management?
Interventions targeting primary care providers, such as reminders and education, along with ambulatory BP monitoring, can improve blood pressure control by reducing clinical inertia.
Addressing clinical inertia through physician reminders, ambulatory BP monitoring, and educational interventions for primary care providers was associated with an improvement in blood pressure control. Our findings encourage further research to investigate strategies at reducing clinical inertia in the management of hypertension.
