mGlide-Care: A Partnership With Caregivers

Sponsor: University of Minnesota

Summary

Hypertension (HTN) is the most significant stroke, cardiovascular disease and dementia risk factor and is substantially under-treated especially in older persons. In this study the investigators will develop mGlide-Care to address uncontrolled HTN in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early stage Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease Related Dementia (AD/ADRD). mGlide-Care is adapted from mGlide which is a mHealth (mobile health technology) mediated care model for HTN care. Aim 1 will engage stakeholders to study the acceptability of mHealth mediated HTN care and will use their input to develop mGlide-Care. Stakeholders are persons with early stage AD/ADRD and MCI, unpaid family caregivers, primary care providers, geriatricians and clinical pharmacists. Aim 2 is a feasibility pilot to test mGlide-Care vs. usual care in 75 participants with uncontrolled HTN and early stage AD/ADRD or MCI. Caregivers will assist participants. Outcomes will include HTN control and participant and caregiver reported measures.
