Of these, 29.7% and 13.1% had uncontrolled hypertension and hypertensive crisis, respectively. Among those experiencing hypertensive crisis, &amp;gt;50% did not have uncontrolled hypertension. Of the 171,061 patients with \u22652 BP measurements, 5.9% had persistently uncontrolled hypertension. The likelihood of uncontrolled hypertension, persistently uncontrolled hypertension, and hypertensive crisis was higher in patients with black race (vs. white), self-pay (vs. private), prior emergency room visit, and no attributed primary care provider. Readings taken in the evening (vs. morning) and at specialty (vs. primary care) practices were more likely to meet thresholds for uncontrolled hypertension and hypertensive crisis.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Hypertension control remains a significant challenge in healthcare.
