Improving Blood Pressure Control Through the myBPmyLife mHealth Application (myBPmyLife)
February 16, 2024 updated by: Brahmajee K Nallamothu, University of Michigan
Improving Blood Pressure Control Through the myBPmyLife mHealth Application: A Wearables in Reducing Risk and Enhancing Daily Lifestyle (WIRED-L) Center Study
This study is enrolling eligible participants that have high blood pressure.
Reducing dietary salt intake and engaging in regular physical activity is known to decrease blood pressure in people with hypertension.
This trial will determine whether a smartwatch and a mobile health application, which together deliver notifications, can increase activity levels and reduce salt intake for people with high blood pressure.
All study activities will be completed online or via a mobile medical application.
Participants will not have any face-to-face visits with the study team.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Self-reported history of hypertension and no hypertensive medication changes in the last 4 weeks.
- A smartphone with a compatible Apple or Android operating system installed and able to download and use the myBPmyLife app including accepting all permissions
- A valid email address
- Fluent in spoken and written English
- Signed written informed consent. (Note that each participant must be able to consent for themselves.)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Contraindication to performing physical activity or following a sodium restriction diet. The participant must be able to walk and eat on their own without assistive devices.
- Unstable symptoms or markedly elevated BP at enrollment (defined as systolic BP>180 mmHg, diastolic BP>120 millimeters of mercury (mmHg))
- Known secondary causes of hypertension (e.g., adrenal insufficiency, pheochromocytoma), heart failure, or end-stage renal disease
- Difficulty using an upper arm blood pressure cuff due to biceps size or end-stage renal disease or difficulty comfortably wearing a smartwatch
- Wrist too large to wear a smartwatch comfortably.
- Daily sodium intake less than 1500 mg/day as measured by the sodium screener
- Currently pregnant or planning to become pregnant in the next six months

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Control arm
Participants in the control group will be provided a smartwatch and home blood pressure monitor.
They will also be provided with general instructions on how to download and install a physical activity and diet regulation applications (apps) available to the general public.
They will still be asked to perform the blood pressure monitoring at regularly scheduled time periods, but do not receive the intervention components notifications in myBPmyLife app developed for the experimental group.
|
Participants will receive the myBPmyLife app, a smartwatch, and blood pressure cuff.
The myBPmyLife app will not be fully activated (as they are in the control arm).
They will be provided with the option of downloading and installing a mHealth app that is publicly available.
In this arm they will also perform the blood pressure monitoring, but do not receive the intervention components through the myBPmyLife app.
|
Experimental: Dietary plus physical activity JITAI
Participants in the experimental group will be provided a smarthwatch and home blood pressure monitor.
They will then receive the myBPmyLife app that includes push notifications to promote increased physical activity and improve low sodium food choices.
The app also provides goal setting for weekly step count and information on low-sodium food choices, as well as feedback on achieving the goals using a dashboard with visualization tools within the mobile application.
|
A Fitbit smartwatch and home blood pressure monitor will be mailed to participants (in both the experimental and control arms).
Participants in the intervention arm then will set up and utilize the myBPmyLife app.
This app includes push notifications to promote increased physical activity and improve low-sodium food choices, establish goal setting for weekly step count and low sodium food choices, and deliver feedback on achieving the goals using a dashboard visualization within the mobile application.
