Pilot Study Based on Technology Solutions for Hypertension Care

The study falls within the scope of the HSMonitor project, a pre-commercial tender for the development of telematics solutions aimed at optimising patient health status and disease management. Specifically, the aim of this study is to test whether the adoption of HSMonitor solutions by healthcare professionals and patients improves the management of patients with high blood pressure. This will be a randomised controlled trial where patients with hypertension will be randomised either to one of the two digital solutions or to standard care. The present pilot study is planned to be carried out within the framework of the EU project HSMonitor - Pre-commercial Procurement of innovative ICT-enabled monitoring to improve health status and optimize hypertension care (Grant Agreement Nr. 856698). The two solutions are referred to as: * Solution 1 - HSmartBPM (developed by a supplier consortium led by GNOMON) * Solution 2 - HyperHealth (developed by a supplier consortium led by TECH4CARE)
