Home blood pressure measurement self-reporting in real-life practices using the Hy-Result app: self-monitoring and digital pathway

CONCLUSIONS: Our real-life study shows that 90% of the HBPM reports include the required minimum number of BP readings to allow the calculation of a reliable average among whom 40% have uncontrolled BP levels. The self-management Hy-Result web app demonstrates significant potential for inclusion in the patient care process and reinforces the patient's engagement to independently monitor and self-reported their BP. When the mean BP is not within the recommended range, the users were automatically prompted by text messages to seek medical advice by the software. Further research should determine the extent to which users adhere to text messages advice.PMID:38689612 | PMC:PMC11058600 | DOI:10.21037/mhealth-23-66
