What this Trial Is About
Peer-based medication delivery decreases the cost of transportation and the opportunity cost of travel while HIT can support peer activities by facilitating targeted adherence counseling, teleconsultation, synchronization of clinical care, and pharmacy activities. The investigators have implemented a pilot program of door-to-door peer-based medication delivery and HIT in western Kenya, and preliminary data indicate improved adherence and blood pressure. However, the effectiveness of this implementation strategy is not fully established. Therefore, the objective of the study is to use the PRECEDE-PROCEED framework to conduct transdisciplinary implementation research to test the hypothesis that integrating peer delivery of medications with HIT (PT4A) improves medication adherence and reduces blood pressure among patients with uncontrolled hypertension in western Kenya.
