Summary

This observational study investigates the correlation between home blood pressure variability (BPV) and arteriosclerosis, alongside metabolic indicators, in hypertensive patients over a three-year period. The research specifically focuses on the predictive value of home BPV for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including myocardial infarction, stroke, and heart failure hospitalizations. Utilizing a mobile application called Healthscan for daily BP monitoring, the study aims to enhance the understanding of how BPV impacts cardiovascular and metabolic health in a real-world setting.

Conditions

  • Hypertension
  • Blood Pressure Monitoring, Home
  • Arteriosclerosis
  • Metabolic Syndrome X

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Healthscan App

Participants will use the Healthscan mobile application to monitor and record their daily blood pressure at home. The app allows participants to enter their BP measurements, which are then used to calculate blood pressure variability (BPV). The app's use is intended as a non-invasive, practical tool for patient self-management and longitudinal health monitoring in hypertensive individuals.
