May support tele-management in diabetic hypertension; hypothesis-generating and requires RCTs before practice change.
Does a home BP tele-management system lower BP in diabetic patients with uncontrolled ambulatory hypertension?
p-value: p=<.001
A mobile phone-based remote patient monitoring system significantly reduced 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure in diabetic patients with uncontrolled hypertension.
Logan et al. (2007) studied Hypertension in diabetic patients (n=33). Mobile phone-based home BP tele-management system vs. Baseline (before-and-after design) was evaluated on Change in 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (p=<.001). A mobile phone-based home BP tele-management system reduced 24-h ambulatory BP by 11/5 mm Hg over 4 months in diabetic patients with uncontrolled hypertension (P<.001).
