In preparation for a larger scale randomized controlled trial, we also performed a cost analysis of invitation method and success rate, investigated the operational and methodological aspects of the proposed intervention, and queried patients willingness to continue to attend community pharmacy blood pressure sessions and their preferences for the time and frequency of the sessions. |
