- W1546465512 abstract "Telemedicine increases quality of life dramatically. Patient’s autonomy and responsibility are strengthened, that means a significant benefit. Patients realise a better safety with diagnostic and therapy as well as a decrease in therapeutic risks. This leads to a great acceptance of telemetric methods. Improvement of quality of life by telemedicine is demonstrable in heart failure, diabetes mellitus, rhythm disorders, psychiatric diseases and blood pressure. (Schmidt, 2009) Telemetric medicine can be helpful in wide areas with low density of population like Africa and Asia, but also in rural regions in Europe (like Sweden, Scotland etc.) or North America or Canada with its large rural districts. Worldwide, hypertension is common (Wolf-Meier et al., 2003) and regarded as a major public health problem. The prevalence of hypertension was found to be 28% in North America and 44 % in western Europe (Wolf-Meier et al., 2003).Though arterial hypertension was thought to be low in Africa in the 70ties and 80ties of the last century newer studies showed a prevalence between 15 % (Nigeria) and 28 % (Ghana) (Cappucio et al., 2004). Altogether patients in underserved rural areas have a higher prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension (Mainous et al., 2004). Home monitoring can be a valuable tool in all populations. Patients who self-monitor can reach target BP goals with less medication (Verberk et al, 2007). Compared to office monitored patients they used an average of 1 drug or 1 dose less (p<.0001) at a reduced cost of $1124 per 100 patients for 1 month (p<.001) (Verberk et al., 2007). The effectiveness of home monitoring is enhanced with Internet-based communications by health care providers (Green et al., 2008). A significant higher proportion of patients who received home blood pressure monitoring and Internet-based pharmacist care had controlled blood pressure (56%; 95%CI, 0,49-0,62) compared with those receiving standard care (31%; 95%CI, 0,25-0,37) or home-based care alone (36%; 95%CI 0,30-0,42) (p<.001) (Green et al., 2008) Experience of safety and autonomy as well as responsibility for the own health is promoted by telemedicine. Numerous studies indicate an improvement of psychosocial factors. A deterioration of patient’s psychosocial adaptation to the underlying disease by the used technology was picked up seldom." @default.
