A happy, heart-healthy 2014 to Million Hearts® partners and supporters! I’m pleased to announce the selection of the 2013 Million Hearts® Hypertension Control Champions. Congratulations to these diverse clinicians, practices, and health systems for achieving high blood pressure control rates ranging from 73% to more than 90%. They used evidence-based guidelines and protocols, practiced team-based care, embedded automatic reminders in e-health records to track patients’ progress, and recognized high-performing team members. How many of these strategies will you adopt in 2014 to improve your patients’ high blood pressure and help us prevent 1 million heart attacks and strokes? —Janet Wright, MD, FACC Executive Director, Million Hearts® |
