Abstract
This project explores the potential benefits that educational pamphlet distribution might have on the quality of home blood pressure measurements in patients with hypertension. This presentation discusses key information regarding hypertension at county, state, and national levels, providing statistics on diagnoses, treatment compliance, public health costs, and more. The project aims to determine whether an educational pamphlet can be used as a supplemental tool to improve patient compliance with regularly and correctly checking their blood pressures.
