74%

controlled at first follow-up

~30 days, lead site, <140/90

92%

controlled by second follow-up

Limitations, in plain English

  • Observational, not randomized.
  • Funded by IMS and MedsEngine.
  • NICaS was used with MedsEngine decision support inside a managed quality program.
  • The control target was <140/90.

Next: a US randomized trial

HDI plans a randomized controlled trial at a US academic medical center, running alongside launch.
