Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • age ≥ 18 years (stroke is commoner above this age cut-off)
  • male or females (sex is a biologic variable of interest)
  • recent stroke (within one month of symptom onset)- stroke may be ischemic or hemorrhagic based on brain imaging or diagnosed clinically using the locally validated version of the 8-item questionnaire for verifying stroke free status (8-QVSFS) when neuroimaging is not feasible
  • uncontrolled HTN (SBP ≥ 140 mmHg at both the last clinical encounter post-stroke and the eligibility screening visit) - SBP is used as the selection variable since most African hypertensives \<60 years have systolic or combination systolic/ diastolic HTN and for most patients, controlling SBP also results in DBP control
  • patients or family carers should own a basic mobile phone that can receive text/audio messages.

Exclusion

  • \- Any condition that would limit participation in follow up assessments, such as severe cognitive impairment/dementia (MMSE ≤24).
