- Brief Summary
One hundred and two patients with lifestyle diseases (averaged age of 51.5, 84 males and 18 females) were paticipated. All the average measures including blood pressure, body weight and daily steps were significantly improved, especially in the subjects with initially poor lifestyle status. The actual measurements as a proportion of the total number due were 55-76% for each sensor. These rates decreased significantly in the third month. Although only 5-12% of the subjects complained of poor operability of self-measurement, a greater proportion (32.5%) found difficulty in the procedures of data transmission. Elderly people showed greater willingness to pay for a potential commercial service of health promotion using i-TECHO.
