| Description |
The following Doctor of Nursing Practice explores the use of the Hear the Beat pamphlet to help educate adults in the management of their hypertension. |
| Abstract |
Primary care providers can improve hypertension (HTN) management by using the Hear the Beat (HTB) pamphlet to guide the comprehensive management of HTN, especially for older adults. The 2020 International Society of Hypertension Global Hypertension Practice Guidelines provide updated blood pressure (BP) parameters and encourage greater patient participation. The HTB pamphlet needed revision to comply with the latest guidelines. The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) team modified the pamphlet and created training on updates for clinical staff at the Ogden Clinic--Farmington family practice and urgent care. |
