Know Your Pressures NYC
Sponsor: Columbia University
Summary
Dr. Lisa A. Hark (PI and Study Chair) and an interdisciplinary team have designed "Know Your Pressures NYC" to conduct blood pressure (BP)/glaucoma screenings in adults age 40+ to identify undiagnosed and/or uncontrolled hypertension and/or glaucoma/suspect. For the purpose of this study, individuals will be identified as glaucoma suspects if they have elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) or have features of glaucoma optic neuropathy, as assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus/optic nerve photographs, as interpreted by the masked Reading Center.

Interventions
Virtual Automated Navigator Intervention with Health Education
Consented participants referred for follow-up to in-office appointments from the 10 developments randomized to the Virtual Automated Navigator Intervention with Health Education Arm will receive text messaging support via REDCAP with all aspects of follow-up appointments at either Columbia University Irving Medical Center or Harlem Hospital, specifically appointment scheduling and education about hypertension and/or glaucoma/suspect over a 1 year period.
Usual Care
Consented participants referred for follow-up to in-office appointments from the 4 developments randomized to the Usual Care Arm will only be scheduled for their initial appointments at either Columbia University Irving Medical Center or Harlem Hospital. They will not receive enhanced support. Scheduling this initial appointment will allow tracking of adherence. Arm 2 represents a realistic choice available for participants following screening over a 1 year period.
