NHSX has been working closely with the NHS@Home team on a range of projects one of which is the roll out of automated blood pressure monitors and a digital platform over winter 20/21 to those at highest risk.
We see an opportunity to scale this work more significantly to reach an additional 50,000 people living with hypertension (72,000 people in total).
This first wave would prioritise applications from health systems in areas of deprivation and with high BAME populations to help improve the marked health inequalities within these groups as well as COVID-19 hotspots.
The global pandemic has resulted in rapid implementation of national government policies of social distancing, self-isolation and shielding polices and many NHS services have moved to remote working through telephone and video consultations during COVID-19 to minimise the spread of infection. This presents specific challenges in managing patients who need monitoring of their blood pressure to guide the appropriate use of medication.
Evidence from clinical trials has demonstrated that patients with hypertension who self-monitor their BP tend to have lower BP than those patients who don't monitor their BP. It has been found that home blood pressure monitoring readings are often lower than readings taken in the clinic setting and are closer to the average BP recorded during 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM).
