Self-monitoring of blood pressure (BP) appears to reduce BP in hypertension but important questions remain regarding effective implementation and which groups may benefit most. This individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis was performed to better understand the effectiveness of BP self-monitoring to lower BP and control hypertension. Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched for randomised trials comparing self-monitoring to no self-monitoring in hypertensive patients (June 2016). Two reviewers independently assessed articles for eligibility and the authors of eligible trials were approached requesting IPD. Of 2,846 articles in the initial search, 36 were eligible. IPD were provided from 25 trials, including 1 unpublished study. Data for the primary outcomes—change in mean clinic or ambulatory BP and proportion controlled below target at 12 months—were available from 15/19 possible studies (7,138/8,292 [86%] of randomised participants). Overall, self-monitoring was associated with reduced clinic systolic blood pressure (sBP) compared to usual care at 12 months (−3.2 mmHg, [95% CI −4.9, −1.6 mmHg]). However, this effect was strongly influenced by the intensity of co-intervention ranging from no effect with self-monitoring alone (−1.0 mmHg [−3.3, 1.2]), to a 6.1 mmHg (−9.0, −3.2) reduction when monitoring was combined with intensive support. Self-monitoring was most effective in those with fewer antihypertensive medications and higher baseline sBP up to 170 mmHg. No differences in efficacy were seen by sex or by most comorbidities. Ambulatory BP data at 12 months were available from 4 trials (1,478 patients), which assessed self-monitoring with little or no co-intervention. There was no association between self-monitoring and either lower clinic or ambulatory sBP in this group (clinic −0.2 mmHg [−2.2, 1.8]; ambulatory 1.1 mmHg [−0.3, 2.5]). Results for diastolic blood pressure (dBP) were similar. The main limitation of this work was that significant heterogeneity remained. This was at least in part due to different inclusion criteria, self-monitoring regimes, and target BPs in included studies. Self-monitoring alone is not associated with lower BP or better control, but in conjunction with co-interventions (including systematic medication titration by doctors, pharmacists, or patients; education; or lifestyle counselling) leads to clinically significant BP reduction which persists for at least 12 months. The implementation of self-monitoring in hypertension should be accompanied by such co-interventions. In an individual patient data meta-analysis of randomized trials, Katherine Tucker and colleagues examine the evidence for the effectiveness of self-monitoring of blood pressure in hypertension. Self-monitoring of BP appears to lower BP in people with hypertension, over and above usual care. Implementation of self-monitoring has been inconsistent, perhaps because important evidence gaps remain regarding how best to use it and for which patient groups. To better understand the effect of self-monitoring on BP lowering and BP control. Specifically, to examine the effect of self-monitoring in combination with various co-interventions, and in different groups of patients. We undertook a systematic literature search to identify all studies that included self-monitoring of BP in people with high BP. For studies published since the year 2000 with at least 6 months of follow-up data and at least 100 patients, we contacted authors to gain access to the original data collected for each individual patient (15/19 studies with the primary outcome provided data: 7,138/8,292 randomised participants). We then used these data to perform IPD meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of self-monitoring on BP levels and in the control of hypertension using 1 year of follow-up as our primary end point. We predefined levels of intensity of co-intervention and subgroups of patients for further analysis. Self-monitoring worked best when combined with more intensive interventions such as self-management, systematic medication titration, or lifestyle counselling, but had little or no effect on its own. Self-monitoring was most effective in those with fewer antihypertensive medications and higher baseline sBP up to 170 mmHg. No differences in efficacy were seen by sex or by most comorbidities. Self-monitoring can be recommended to lower BP when combined with co-interventions involving individually tailored support. Self-monitoring alone does not seem to lower BP but may be useful for other reasons including engaging with patients or reducing clinician workload.
