A randomised controlled trial of a comprehensive smartphone application-centric model of care to improve outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease

这个研究项目将检查智能手机应用程序的使用和相关的护理模式。1080名参与者将被招募并随机分配到接收应用程序和两个外围设备——一个血压仪和一个体重秤——这两个设备都将结果无线传输到应用程序，然后再传输到在线服务器。这些数据由研究小组监测，他们可以用它来识别患者病情的惊人趋势。

This research project will examine the use of a smartphone application and an associated care model. 1,080 participants will be recruited and randomised to either receiving the application and two peripheral devices - a blood pressure machine and a weighing scale - both of which wirelessly transmit the results to the app and subsequently to an online server. This data is monitored by the research team who may use it to identify alarming trends in a patients' condition.
