Summary
HASS-2 is a multi-center, cross-sectional quality improvement project: evaluating the
implementation of a hypertension guideline protocol by perioperative clinicians, as a model
for improving various aspects of public health. The study will also describe the co-morbid
risk profile of these newly identified or poorly controlled hypertensive patients. In
addition, as a sub-study, these patients will be followed up at monthly intervals for 3
months after discharge, in order to quantify the rates of compliance with their prescribed
treatment.
