Cone Health will partner with Lirio to develop and launch Precision Nudging interventions for chronic conditions with an initial focus on hypertension. Hypertension – or elevated blood pressure – is a serious medical condition that significantly increases the risks of heart, brain, kidney, and other diseases. Nearly 1 in 2 adults in the United States has hypertension, and approximately 1 in 5 adults with hypertension are recommended lifestyle changes. Hypertension causes or contributes to nearly 27% of all deaths in North Carolina each year. The high prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension in underserved populations is a major cause of health disparities in the United States and requires innovative health care delivery interventions.
