However, providers are not aware of proper blood pressure measurement skills, do not master all the appropriate skills, or miss key steps in the process, leading to inconsistent or inaccurate readings. Training in blood pressure measurement for most providers is usually limited to a one\u2010time brief demonstration during professional education coursework. The American Medical Association and the American Heart Association developed a 30\u2010minute e\u2010Learning module designed to refresh and improve existing blood pressure measurement knowledge and clinical skills among practicing providers. One hundred seventy\u2010seven practicing providers, which included medical assistants, nurses, advanced practice providers, and physicians, participated in a multi\u2010site randomized educational study designed to assess the effect of this e\u2010Learning module on blood pressure measurement knowledge and skills. Participants were randomized 1:1 to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group followed a pre\u2010post assessment approach, and the control group followed a test\u2010retest approach. The initial assessment showed that participants in both the intervention and control groups correctly performed less than half of the 14 skills considered necessary to obtain an accurate blood pressure measurement (mean scores 5.5 and 5.9, respectively). Following the e\u2010Learning module, the intervention group performed on average of 3.4 more skills correctly vs 1.4 in the control group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a0.01). Our findings reinforce existing evidence that errors in provider blood pressure measurements are highly prevalent and provide novel evidence that refresher training improves measurement accuracy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jch.14419","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,14]],"date-time":"2022-02-14T13:18:10Z","timestamp":1644844690000},"page":"255-262","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Using web\u2010based training to improve accuracy of blood pressure measurement among health care professionals: A\u00a0randomized trial"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7096-775X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rupinder","family":"Hayer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Improving Health Outcomes American Medical Association  Chicago Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kate","family":"Kirley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Improving Health Outcomes American Medical Association  Chicago Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4649-079X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jordana B.","family":"Cohen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Renal\u2010Electrolyte and Hypertension Division Perelman School of Medicine University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"},{"name":"Department of Biostatistics Epidemiology and Informatics Perelman School of Medicine University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stavros","family":"Tsipas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Improving Health Outcomes American Medical Association  Chicago Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susan E.","family":"Sutherland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Improving Health Outcomes American Medical Association  Chicago Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suzanne","family":"Oparil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cardiovascular Disease Department of Medicine University of Alabama at Birmingham  Birmingham Alabama USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christina M.","family":"Shay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Global Epidemiology and RWE Boehringer Ingelheim  Ingelheim Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Debbie L.","family":"Cohen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Renal\u2010Electrolyte and Hypertension Division Perelman School of Medicine University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Kabir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Aurora Research Institute Aurora Health Downers Grove  Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gregory","family":"Wozniak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Improving Health Outcomes American Medical Association  Chicago Illinois USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0140\u20106736(18)32225\u20106"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40292-013-0012-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/HYP.0000000000000087"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2018.10.069"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jch.13018"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/HJH.0000000000001197"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/HYPERTENSIONAHA.118.11558"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","unstructured":"Blood Pressure Measurement Training Research Report.
