 In the last decade, significant progress has been made in improving the heart health of individuals in the United States. However, despite these advances, many racial and ethnic minority groups still have high rates of cardiovascular disease. Korean Americans, in particular, are more prone to developing high blood pressure than other Americans or individuals living in Korea. Possible reasons for this may include stress, diet, or lifestyle changes that occur as a result of immigration. Because many Korean Americans have low health literacy skills, it may be harder for them to understand medication dosing instructions, keep track of medical appointments, or comprehend written medical information. Korean Americans have traditionally been identified as a hard to reach group, and few programs have specifically targeted these individuals with regards to improving blood pressure control. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a health literacy-focused intervention that aims to improve blood pressure control among older Korean Americans. The results from this study may be helpful in developing future literacy-focused blood pressure programs targeted to minority groups in the United States.
