No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators hypothesize that the implementation of a checklist in acute severe hypertension would result in improving short and long-term outcomes of patients with acute severe hypertension treated in the emergency department (ED). The investigators hypothesize that in the short-term, a checklist would improve the diagnosis and management of end-organ damage as well as reduce the length of stay of acute severe hypertensive patients in the ED. The investigators hypothesize that the checklist will result in better compliance with anti-hypertensive medications than without the checklist at six-month post-discharge.
