The Morehouse - Emory Center for Cardiovascular Health Equity (MECA) study examines cardiac outcomes between participants who are randomized to received Health360x (a web-based and mobile-based application), a patient engagement solution for self-monitoring and health coach intervention in chronic disease management. The application addresses gaps in implementation, and dissemination of evidence based care among populations most impacted by health disparities. Patients can self monitor and chart health data such as height, weight, medications, blood pressure and physical activity, and potentially share their data with the healthcare team.

As part of the MECA study, participants receive instructions on using the Health360x application and will use Health360x alone or Health360x with a health coach for 6 months. Measures of cardiovascular health will be assessed at baseline and after the 6 month long intervention.
