Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of the Smart Care ubiquitous healthcare service on hypertension management. Fifty one patients with inadequately controlled blood pressure (Systolic Blood Pressure ${\geq}$ 140 mmHg despite prescribed antihypertensive medication) from 4 local clinics participated in this study. Remote biometric monitoring and healthcare consultation via videophone was provided to the participants during 24 week - Smart Care service. The average number of blood pressure monitoring and the average day of remote consult using Smart Care Service system was 121 and 14.8 per participant. As a result of analyzing change in blood pressure during 24 weeks, there was a significant difference in blood pressure between baseline and 24 weeks. Systolic blood pressures of 86.3% participants were dropped within a normal range at 24 week. Smart Care u-health service could be effective in reducing blood pressure.

본 연구는 지식경제부가 주도한 u-Health 공공시범 사업의 하나인 스마트케어서비스의 효과를 분석하고자 시도되었다. 2011년 12월 1일부터 2012년 8월 30일 까지 연구에 동의한 51명의 고혈압 대상자(수축기압 140mmHg이상)들은 기존의 1차 의료기관의 내원진료와 투약을 유지하면서 원격모니터링을 포함한 24주간의 원격건강관리서비스를 받았다. 24 주 동안의 평균 자가 측정 혈압 모니터링 횟수와 원격 상담횟수는 121회와 14.8회였다. 24주 스마트케어 서비스 후 수축기와 이완기혈압은 유의하게 감소하였으며, 서비스 초기 수축기압이 140mmHg 이상이던 전체 대상자의 86.3%가 24주후 정상 수축기혈압을 유지하였다. 스마트케어서비스는 고혈압대상자의 혈압변화에 있어 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
