Clinical Trial Summary

Hypertension is a major cause of death worldwide. Patients should adjust their lifestyle and learn how to maintain a balance between self-management of a disease and their daily livelihood. Knowledge is networked, mobile devices can be used as a way of health education. The purpose of this study is to evaluation the effectiveness of the disease self-management program through a mobile applications for patients with hypertension. Statistical analyses was used analysis of covariance for checking the effect of interventions. Through the calculation by a statistical power analysis formula, the study takes 70 samples and divides them into a control group (usual care) and an experimental group (disease self-management program through a mobile applications) by the single blind randomized controlled trial, whereby each groups has 35 samples. The first step investigate the physiological indicators, mental health, self-management, quality of life of the patients. For the experimental group, after the pre-test the study set up a health guide for the disease self-management program with a mobile applications. The experimental group received the mobile apps educational program for at least 30 minutes each session and at least once every two days. After two weeks and six weeks, a follow-up telephone interview helped to strengthen the health self-management self-confidence. The effect of interventions was then evaluated after three months when the patients returned. Therefore, the self-management of a disease can be improved and patients will learn to live in harmony with hypertension by improving their mental health, self-management, and quality of life.


Clinical Trial Description

Due to the aging population and the advancement of medical science and technology, people's lives have been extended longer in years, but at the same time the prevalence rate of chronic diseases is increasing. Hypertension may cause several complications, resulting in abnormal organs either chronically or deadly. Patients should adjust their lifestyle and learn how to maintain a balance between self-management of a disease and their daily livelihood. Knowledge is networked, mobile devices can be used as a way of health education. Therefore, this research builds a disease self-management program through a mobile applications that runs in accordance with expert validity, so as to effectively control hypertension and avoid its complications. SPSS/Windows 22.0 helped with filing and statistical analyses, and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used for checking the effect of interventions. Through the calculation by a statistical power analysis formula, the study takes 70 samples and divides them into a control group (usual care) and an experimental group (disease self-management program through a mobile applications) by the single blind random control trial, whereby each groups has 35 subjects. The first step tests the physiological indicators, mental health, self-management, and quality of life of the patients. For the experimental group, after the pre-test the study set up a health guide for the disease self-management program with a mobile applications. The experimental group received the mobile apps educational program for at least 30 minutes each session and at least once every two days. After two weeks and six weeks, a follow-up telephone interview helped to strengthen the health self-management self-confidence. The effect of interventions was then evaluated after three months when the patients returned. The findings are expected to effectively control patients' hypertension in Taiwan after completing the research plan. Therefore, the self-management of a disease can be improved and patients will learn to live in harmony with hypertension by improving their mental health, self-management, and quality of life. ;
