Impact of Home Telemonitoring and Management Support on Blood Pressure Control in Nondialysis CKD: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypertension is a major cause of cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and death. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of home blood pressure telemonitoring (HBPT) for blood pressure (BP) control and outcomes, but the effects of this intervention remain unclear in patients with CKD.

Objective

To determine the impact of HBPT on cardiovascular-related and kidney disease-related outcomes in patients with CKD.

Design

Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Setting

All studies that met our criteria regardless of country of origin.

Participants

Patients with chronic kidney disease included in studies using HBPT for BP assessment and control.

Measurements

Descriptive and quantitative analysis of our primary and secondary
