Building a Multidisciplinary Research Program to Address Hypertension Disparities: Exploring the Neurocognitive Mechanisms of a Self-Management Intervention for African American Women

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hypertension

In brief

The goal of this project is to develop and pilot test a research protocol to assess the influence of a health information behavior enhanced intervention on self-management, blood pressure control, and brain activity in African American women with hypertension. This work will identify characteristics of African American women that are associated with improved self-management and decreased blood pressure, and subsequent reduction of risk of heart disease and premature death. The results of this project will have direct impact in informing interventions to improve blood pressure control, by advancing our knowledge of brain activity associated with behavior change in African American women with hypertension in the metro-Detroit area, and ultimately everywhere.
