ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОЕ ОБОСНОВАНИЕ ПРИМЕНЕНИЯ АВТОМАТИЧЕСКОЙ СИСТЕМЫ ДИСТАНЦИОННОГО МОНИТОРИНГА АРТЕРИАЛЬНОГО ДАВЛЕНИЯ

Abstract

Introduction. Among the priorities of the strategic development of the health care system there is the telemedicine technologies implementation. Material and methods. The project was developed in the Penza State University. For the economic justification of the remote BP monitoring, the project technological scheme has been prepared, the market capacity has been assessed and competition has been analyzed, the business model and financial model of the project have been developed, and risks have been evaluated. Results. The project is deployed at the base and with the participation of the budget medical institution. The patient is provided with a tonometer with built-in GSM or blutooth module. After the patient’s BP has been measured, the data in an encrypted format is transmitted to the remote monitoring center and stored in the cloud base. For each patient, the doctor sets target and individual thresholds for blood pressure. Intermediate monitoring of BP is carried out by paramedical personnel who, in case of deviations from reference values, notify the attending physician. The patient receives feedback in the form of SMS-messages to his mobile phone: time for BP measuring, taking drugs and recommendations for the therapy correction. Payment is carried out according to the approved Mandatory Medical Insurance Fund tariff. Conclusion. The introduction of remote blood pressure monitoring will reduce the cost of providing medical care by reducing the number of hypertension complications, open up prospects for research and development of medical professionals. Fundamentally new conditions will arise for the study of chronopharmacology of antihypertensive drugs in patients with hypertension.
