Abstract

Recently, the use of telemedicine technologies (TMT) in the healthcare has gained great importance. TMT is one of the ways to increase the healthcare availability, including in patients with high blood pressure (BP). Office BP measurement and 24-hour BP monitoring are not accurate enough to study natural or induced BP changes over long periods of time. For the selection of antihypertensive drugs and the diagnosis of hypertension (HTN) in patients with an emotionally unstable personality type, as well as in the differential diagnosis of normotension, preHTN, BP selfmonitoring comes first. The use of BP self-monitoring for the diagnosis, selection of therapy, assessment of adherence and effectiveness of treatment of HTN is more effective with remote, socalled telemetric, dynamic BP monitoring. The article presents world experience in the effective use of dynamic remote BP monitoring using TMT.
