It is
estimated that 1 in 3 American adults have high blood pressure, and now face
increased risks for chronic kidney disease, stroke, and heart attack/heart
failure.
Given its
severe impact on patient health, its high prevalence, and the low control rates
(more than half of Americans with HBP do not have it under control), mHealth
Games hopes to give a voice to this national health problem and improve the
detection, awareness, prevention and treatment of hypertension and its
consequences.
By
supporting initiatives to improve patient outcomes, promote mobile engagement,
and provide free education and services to patients and health care
professionals, mHealth Games aims to advocate on behalf of all stakeholders
with a focus on achieving fluency in the language of prevention.
