SUMMARY:Webinar - Population Health Issues and Opportunities: Spotlighting High Blood Pressure
DESCRIPTION:Improving population health requires health systems to take a tailored approach and re-prioritize their efforts to address the challenges of costly conditions impacting their communities. According to recent estimates from the American Heart Association\, 100 million Americans have high blood pressure\, and consequences of inadequate treatment include risk of cardiovascular disease\, stroke\, renal failure and early death\, as well as a high cost of care. Get practical tips to help put new clinical practice guidelines into action to improve the care of patients with high blood pressure. \nLearning Points \nDefine what population health means within the parameters of your own organization and community\nAddress the critical importance of focusing on high blood pressure as a major priority for health systems\nUnderstand the importance of population health strategies designed to diagnose and treat hypertension\nRecognize that one of the keys to improving hypertension care is to familiarize clinical and administrative health system leadership with the comprehensiveness of the 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines for high blood pressure

SUMMARY:Target: BP Webinar - The Importance of Measuring Blood Pressure Accurately
DESCRIPTION:This one-hour live webinar will train physicians\, and clinical teams on the “Measure Accurately” component of the M.A.P. Framework. M.A.P. stands for Measure Accurately\, Act Rapidly\, and Partner with Patients\, Families and Communities. Blood pressure variability\, poor blood pressure measurement technique and white-coat effect contribute to uncertainty about what a patient’s true blood pressure is.  This uncertainty about the reliability of a patient’s blood pressure reading is a leading cause of clinicians failing to act to manage high blood pressure (therapeutic inertia).  \nLearning Objectives \nDescribe accurate blood pressure measurement as the foundation for accurately diagnosing and managing high blood pressure\nDescribe the impact that unreliable blood pressure measurements can have on clinical decisions\nList factors (patient\, observer\, system) that can make blood pressure readings inaccurate and identify strategies to overcome those factors\nUse Measure Accurately tools to identify opportunities for improving accuracy and reliability of blood pressure measurement
