Why the study?
Self-monitoring of blood pressure is common, but how telemonitoring with an mHealth solution can be implemented by patients and healthcare professionals in hypertension management remains unclear.
Does mHealth telemonitoring improve the implementation of hypertension self-monitoring compared to paper-based diaries in primary care patients and healthcare professionals?
