User engagement with home blood pressure monitoring: a multinational cohort using real-world data collected with a connected device.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Connected blood pressure (BP) monitors provide reliable data when used properly. Our objective was to analyse the engagement of real-world users with self-measurements.

Methods

We included adult first-time users of a connected BP monitor from July 2019 to March 2021. They were categorized as persistent users if they continued to use the device between 311 and 400 days after inclusion. We defined a criterion to analyse the timing of self-measurements: at least 12 measurements performed within three consecutive days, at least once every 90 days. Persistent users were clustered by state sequence analysis according to the consistency of their BP monitor measurement timing with this criterion during 1 year of follow-up.

Results

Among the 22 177 included users, 11
