简要总结
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the use of a digital health offering in the management of persistent hypertension during chronic anti-hypertensive treatment.
详细描述
In patients with persistent essential systolic hypertension,who are undergoing assessment of their current pharmaceutical burden for blood pressure control, a digital health offering is used (1) to provide automatic and passive electronic documentation of medication adherence and patterns of medication taking, (2) to assist providers in distinguishing inadequate medication adherence or pharmacologic unresponsiveness as the root cause for persistent hypertension, and (3) to inform management decisions (dose adjustment, medication addition or substitution, adherence counseling, referral to a hypertension specialist).
Participating patients wear an adhesive Wearable Sensor ("Patch") continuously with replacement after one week, and ingest an inert tablet ("Pill") containing an Ingestible Sensor daily whenever they take their prescribed anti-hypertensive drugs.
The Patch automatically detects and records the dates and times of each "Pill" ingestion, daily step count, sleep duration and sleep interruptions, and the circadian pattern of rest and activity. After completion of each Patch's use, the recorded data are downloaded and incorporated into a report that includes blood pressures that are obtained at the time of clinic visits at the beginning and after 2 weeks of service use.
The final report is generated automatically and provided electronically to practitioners for review with their patient. The information that is obtained is incorporated by practitioners in advising next steps for blood pressure management.

结局指标
主要结局
Frequency of Medication-taking (% Taking Adherence)
时间窗: 2 weeks
Percent timing adherence is determined by the number of ingestion sensors detected by the wearable monitor, divided by the total number of ingestion sensors prescribed, for the 2 week-time frame.
Pattern of Medication-taking (% Scheduling Adherence)
时间窗: 2 weeks
Percent scheduling adherence is determined by the number of ingestion sensors detected within a ± 2-hour time window around the prescribed dosing period, divided by the number of ingestion sensors detected by the wearable sensor during that dosing period, over the 2-week time frame.
次要结局
- Change in Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure After Use of Digital Health Offering(2 weeks)
- Proportion of Patients Capable of Achieving Blood Pressure Control on Existing Treatment(2 weeks)
- Blood Pressure Management After Use of Digital Health Offering(4 weeks)
