Hypertension
Protocolized home measurement
Monitor your patients remotely and take appropriate and timely actions
Viduet helps you set up the care pathways of your patients with hypertension as efficiently as possible. In this way, you can gain a better understanding of your patient’s health, and you can spend your time as efficiently as possible. Together with your patient, you can create a personalized care program using different care modules. Within the care modules for hypertension, protocolized home blood pressure measurement is central. The protocolized home blood pressure measurement via Viduet (formerly known as EmmaHBPM), is in line with Dutch and European hypertension guidelines. Check out our care modules for hypertension below.
How does it work?
The patient receives a blood pressure measurement package from Viduet. Viduet checks and calibrates the measuring equipment and makes sure it is delivered to the patient. The patient engages in multi-day protoccluded blood pressure measurement. Viduet provides a guide for this and can assist if needed.
Viduet can set signals at certain readings, if the caregiver so desires. Thus, the caregiver or caregiver can be alerted to an extremely high reading, or to any reading the caregiver desires.
Also, for a given value, the patient can be redirected to the home doctor website to read more.
The measurement results are automatically put into a clear report, which can be viewed directly on the Viduet dashboard. In addition, results of the protocolled weekly measurement can be sent immediately to the HIS as a lab value. All results can be viewed at any time, with insight into the trend over time.

Hypertension medication titration
Setting medication in a patient with hypertension
diagnosisHypertension medication titration
With this care module, Viduet offers the opportunity to set up the medication adjustment phase of patients with hypertension as efficiently and reliably as possible. After the patient is enrolled, he receives a package containing all the equipment and a manual. The patient takes multiple protocolized home blood pressure measurements at home. Each time after the protocolled home blood pressure measurement is completed, Viduet informs caregiver and patient in the desired manner. The results of the protocolled weekly measurement can be sent directly to the HIS as a lab value. In addition, Viduet creates a clear report of the protocolled weekly measurement and makes it visible in the dashboard. You can use these to discuss the readings with the patient. Based on the readings, medication can be adjusted as accurately as possible. In this way, Viduet contributes to a more reliable care pathway. In addition, using Viduet, the care pathway can be set up much more efficiently because the patient no longer needs to come to the practice each time. Once the patient’s medication is properly set, you can easily convert the care module to monitoring.

The patient performs regular protocolized home blood pressure monitoring. Each time after the protocolled home blood pressure measurement is completed, Viduet informs caregiver and patient in the desired manner. The results of the protocolled weekly measurement can be sent directly to the HIS as a lab value. In addition, Viduet creates a clear report of the protocolled weekly measurement and makes it visible in the dashboard. You can use these to discuss the readings with the patient. In addition, Viduet shows trends in blood pressure readings over time. Thus, patient and health care provider gain a better understanding the extent to which the patient’s hypertension is under control. Furthermore, Viduet helps to set up even more efficient care pathways for patients with hypertension by reminding patients of all their checkup appointments. In this way, patients are given more control over their own health and you can save a lot of time within the general practice. If desired, questionnaires can also be used within this care module to set up consultations more efficiently.

health_metricsComplex Hypertension Monitoring
This care module targets patients with complex hypertension. Protocolized home blood pressure monitoring is used monthly in this care module to monitor patients for hypertension. In addition, questionnaires can be used to better identify trends in symptoms. Based on these measurements, the health care provider can determine how often the patient should visit the hospital for a consultation. Also, based on these insights, the health care provider can determine if medication needs to be adjusted. The Hypertension medication titration module can then be used temporarily for this purpose. When readings exceed thresholds, caregiver and patient are alerted in the desired manner. This way, appropriate action can be taken immediately.

Exercise is an important factor that can influence patients’ disease course. Using the Activity Coach care module, you ensure that the patient is coached to adopt optimal movement patterns. Thus, the patient is coached, without overexerting himself, to still move enough to promote the rehabilitation process.
When you choose to deploy the Activity Coach, the patient will track their movement patterns through the smartwatch. Using our specially developed software for this smartwatch, the patient will be coached throughout the day to move within the ranges set by their healthcare provider, even if the patient moves too much. This care module can easily be combined with coaching by a physical therapist. In that case, the physical therapist can set the optimal bandwidths and adjust them as needed.
Through a smart algorithm, Viduet recognizes when the patient moves out of bandwidth for an extended period of time. Viduet can then also inform the physical therapist and patient in the desired manner, so that the set bandwidths can be revised if necessary.
Please note: Smartwatch data is used within Viduet for non-medical support.
