What this trial is about
This study seeks to evaluate the impact of a remote patient monitoring (RPM)-specific tech-enabled community health worker workforce on the use of RPM for the management of hypertension among Latinx patients. This study is a step-wedge randomized controlled trial that aims to assess the effectiveness and implementation of RPM-enabled community health workers (CHWs) compared to standard of care RPM hypertension management on blood pressure reduction and evaluate the implementation of the RPM-enabled CHWs for hypertension (HTN) management. The study aims to examine adoption, acceptability, fidelity, cost, sustainability, and equity as outcomes of implementation effectiveness.
