Study start date: August 1, 2014

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

Study design: open-label, parallel cluster randomized controlled trial design. HT Phase: Up to 30 urban and rural communities in Canada, Colombia and Malaysia will be randomized to participate in an intensive CV risk detection and control programme by NPHW or to care as usual for 12 months. NOTE: Canada will serve as a pilot study, which will be used to evaluate feasibility, time, cost and program improvements. CVD Phase: If funded, this phase will be a continuation and expansion of HT Phase to include up to 190 urban and rural communities in countries within Asia, South America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Canada that will be allocated to participate in an intensive CV risk detection and control programme supported by NPHWs or to care as usual for up to 6 years. NOTE: CVD Phase - currently not initiated. Communities will be randomized 1:1 with a central randomization system to either a) intervention or b) control, after screening in the community is complete.

Study Objectives

2 intervention groups are designated in this study

This study does not include a placebo group 

Treatment Groups

Group I

Experimental
Intensive CV risk detection, counselling and follow-up program by NPHW; recommended CV medications will include combinations of anti-hypertensive medications (both low and high doses) and a lipid lowering agent (e.g. statin) in accordance with treatment algorithm [precise formulations used may differ in each country]; use of treatment supporters to reinforce adherence.

Group II

Participants in control communities will be referred to usual care.
