"Community-based, eHealth Supported Management of Cardiovascular Risk Factors by Lay Village Health Workers (ComBaCaL aHT TwiC 1 & ComBaCaL aHT TwiC 2)"

In intervention villages, participants diagnosed with aHT are offered pharmacological treatment (eHealth supported prescription of first-line antihypertensive single-pill combination (SPC)) and treatment monitoring in the villages by CC-VHWs guided by the ComBaCaL app.

In control villages, participants diagnosed with aHT receive a standardized counselling by the CC-VHW and are referred to the closest health facility for initiation or continuation of antihypertensive treatment.
