Remote Telemonitoring

Using the telemedicine kit, participants will record a daily health session including 2 BP measurements obtained one minute apart. Participants are encouraged to record a health session every day, with a minimum of 5 days per week. Participants are also encouraged to equally divide health session recordings between the mornings and evenings. Every 2 weeks BP measurements will be assessed. If less than 75% of measurements are at goal \<130/80 mmHg, the central Telehealth pharmacist will designate drug-therapy intensification according to an evidence-based treatment algorithm that is physician approved. Regardless of BP control, participants will be contacted by their nurse coordinator every 2 weeks. During all telephone visits nurse coordinators emphasize healthy lifestyle habits. Safety protocols are in place for dangerously high or low BP recordings.
