Why the study?
Hypertension has a high prevalence and relatively poor control rate, especially in rural areas, where blood pressure control is the most vulnerable spot and key target to reduce cardiovascular events and mortality.
Do non-physician health worker-led implementation strategies improve blood pressure control in patients with hypertension in rural areas?
