Read our Hypertension research guide →Phase 2 — Testing in a bigger group (up to a few hundred people) to see if the treatment actually works and is still safe.
This trial is testing whether a smartphone app that teaches stress management techniques — delivered through text messages and videos and designed specifically for Black men — can lower blood pressure better than a standard online stress management course. Researchers want to see if this tailored mobile program helps reduce both blood pressure numbers and how stressed you feel over a 6-month period.
High blood pressure affects African American men at higher rates than other groups, and stress is known to make it worse. This trial exists to test whether a stress management tool designed specifically for Black men's needs and delivered on a smartphone could be an effective way to help manage hypertension in this community.
You will be randomly assigned to either the new smartphone stress management program or a standard online stress management course, which you'll use for 3 months. You'll complete a phone survey at the start and after 6 months, and visit the clinic twice (at the beginning and end) to have your blood pressure measured. The entire study lasts 6 months.
