Telemonitoring at scale for hypertension in primary care

While evidence from randomised controlled trials shows that telemonitoring for hypertension is associated with improved blood pressure (BP) control, healthcare systems have been slow to implement it, partly because of inadequate integration with existing clinical practices and electronic records. Neither is it clear if trial findings will be replicated in routine clinical practice at scale. 

This paper explores the feasibility and impact of implementing an integrated telemonitoring system for hypertension into routine primary care.
