Type: article
Study designs: Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis
Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of mobile applications in blood pressure control. Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) examining the effects of "Internet+" mobile application-based nursing interventions on blood pressure management in hypertensive patients were retrieved from five databases: China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, VIP, PubMed, and Embase. The search spanned up to April 7, 2024. Following literature screening, abstract review, and risk-of-bias assessment, a meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4.1 software. Results: Seven studies were included, with the following outcome measures analyzed: ① Systolic blood pressure (SBP): MD = 2.60, 98% CI (1.47, 3.73), P < 0.05; ② Diastolic blood pressure (DBP): MD = 1.63, 98% CI (0.52, 2.75), P < 0.05; ③ Medication adherence: SMD = 0.36, 98% CI (0.21, 0.51), P < 0.05. Conclusion: "Internet+" mobile healthcare nursing interventions significantly improve blood pressure management outcomes in hypertensive patients, enhance medication adherence, and promote better blood pressure control.
