Designing and evaluating health systems level hypertension control interventions for African-Americans: lessons from a pooled analysis of three cluster randomized trials.
This study conducted a pooled analysis of three projects that aimed to evaluate clinically feasible interventions to effect changes in medical care delivery leading to an increased proportion of African American patients with controlled blood pressure (BP). The analysis of trial results to determine the magnitude of the combined intervention effect found that pooled BP did not differ significantly between intervention and control clusters.
