Introduction:Hypertension is estimated at a prevalence of 30 to 50% in the United States. Only 54% of patients with hypertension have their condition adequately controlled. This study aimed to use academic detailing (AD) to improve practice team knowledge and confidence in blood pressure (BP) management, specifically in low-income, underresourced patient populations.Methods:AD was developed for five practices that care for high percentages of Medicaid-eligible patients. A needs assessment was administered to each site's practice champion to determine high-yield AD sessions for their team. Presession and postsession evaluations were completed by practice team members.Results:Fifty providers and eight staff member participants completed evaluations over nine sessions for two AD topics at four practice sites. Statistical significance was found for several items within sessions including accurately choosing cuff sizes and identifying barriers to home BP monitoring.Discussion:AD is a potentially financially efficient model to improve knowledge and confidence in hypertension care at the practice level. Tailoring session content to specific needs of a practice site, along with an identified practice champion, facilitated implementation of the program. This replicable model is one way to deliver evidence-based information to those who serve Medicaid-eligible patients.
