Behavioral Factors Related to Participation in Remote Blood Pressure Monitoring Among Adults With Hypertension: Cross-Sectional Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Remote blood pressure (BP) monitoring (RBPM) or BP telemonitoring is beneficial in hypertension management. People with hypertension involved in telemonitoring of BP often have better BP control than those in usual care. However, most reports on RBPM are from intervention studies.
