Implementing Million Hearts for Provider and Community Transformation Project (Project IMPACT)

Project IMPACT was a randomized-controlled trial situated within community-based primary care practices that primarily served South Asian patients in New York City (NYC). South Asian individuals diagnosed with hypertension were invited to participate in CHW-led group intervention sessions culturally-tailored to the South Asian population. The main outcome was blood pressure (BP) control at 6-month follow-up. In the final analyses, the treatment group had significantly greater BP control at 6-month follow-up.
