About this study

Official title: Mobile Sipoo a Randomized Controlled Trial

Mobile Sipoo is a randomized controlled trial aiming to improve selfcare and outcomes of diabetes and hypertensive patients by introducing a remote patient monitoring system supported with automatic patient decision support. The feedback system is coupled with back-office health coaching.

Read the detailed description

Self-monitored data from blood pressure meters (SMBP), glucometers (SMBG), scales and pedometers are transferred by mobile phone terminals to a tethered personal health record (PHR) integrated with the provider EHR. The PHR application includes tools to display of self-monitoring data.

Control groupNo interventionControl group received usual care
Telemonitoring groupExperimentalIntervention patients were given a remote patient monitoring toolbox that included a mobile telephone, software application, and assessment devices for measuring and remote reporting of hypertension and diabetes -related health parameters at home. The monitored parameters were body weight, steps, blood pressure and blood glucose. Based on their self-monitored data, patients received feedback that was automatically generated, theory-based, health promotion rich information that aimed at strengthening their self-care practices.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in blood pressure (time frame: 9 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Mar 2016.
