Summary

Importance: Less than fifty percent of patients with hypertensive disease manage to maintain their blood pressure (BP) within normal levels. Practical (Pragmatic) and sustainable models are needed in order to improve BP management in patients with hypertension.

Objective: To evaluate whether cloud BP system integrated with computerized physician order entry (CPOE) is useful for improving BP management as compared with traditional care.

DEVICE

Cloud-based home BP monitoring

a sphygmomanometer-style BP measurement device (Microlife®, "WatchBP Home") that stored and transmitted data to a secure cloud BP system directly via a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) gateway through cell phone network.
