Although, meta-analysis confirms that BP telemonitoring may represent a useful tool to improve hypertension management, the strength of the provided evidence is limited. Therefore, future well-designed, large-sample, prospective, controlled trials are mandatory to understand the benefit of BP telemonitoring.
Recently, a specific telehealth solution for hypertension management has been developed in France (Hypertension Monitor - e-CoreLab®).
The present prospective study aims to assess the efficacy of using the telehealth solution "Hypertension Monitor" in patients with hypertension by comparison to the standard care.
The primary objective: To evaluate whether a home telehealth system can improve BP control and other risk factors in hypertensive individuals, as compared to the standard care.
