Summary

This trial will adapt a web-based tool to help primary care doctors identify high blood pressure in youth, and compare how well it works in 45 clinics across 3 states.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 6-17 with high blood pressure, who are not pregnant or postpartum, and have no prior diagnosis of hypertension or use of antihypertensive medication. It's open to patients in certain primary care clinics without a general consent opt-out for research.
What is being tested?
The study tests a web-based tool called PedsBP CDS designed to identify high blood pressure in youth. It will be implemented in rural primary care clinics across three states to see how well it works and the best way to introduce it.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves a decision support tool rather than medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be indirect consequences related to the management changes suggested by the tool.
