2 Your Measurement Week [> 23]
Your Measurement Week
Your Measurement Week is
an important part of using Hypertension Plus to
manage your blood pressure. National guidelines in England recommend measuring
your blood pressure at home every morning and evening for one week in order to
get an accurate picture of your blood pressure. During your measurement week Hypertension Plus will alert you to measure your blood
pressure in the morning and the evening every day.
• What
happens with the data?
Taking measurements over 1 week gives an accurate picture of your
blood pressure. Your doctor uses this to review your treatment plan.
• What
happens if I miss a day?
Don't
worry, just continue measuring the next day. We will extend
your measurement week by up to 7 days to allow you to catch up!
• Why did
my measurement week stop before the end of the week?
Hypertension Plus automatically
calculates your average blood pressure after every
measurement. When your average blood pressure is either a lot higher or a lot
lower than your target, then less data is needed to confirm your blood pressure
status. Therefore Hypertension Plus may end your
measurement week early. Don't worry, your data will be shared with your doctor
in the usual way.
The status
bar at the top of the Home screen keeps you
up-to-date on the progress of your measurement week. Tap the status bar to
learn more about the measurement week.
Before your measurement week: The status bar tells you how many days
until your measurement week starts.
During your measurement week: The status bar keeps track of how many
measurement days you have completed and how many more need to be done.
After your measurement week: If you have successfully completed your
measurement week the status bar shows your average blood pressure result. Tap
the status bar to learn more about the result and what it may mean for you.
Your doctor will use this data, along with the questionnaire that you submitted
at the beginning your measurement week, to review your treatment plan. If you
did not take enough blood pressure measurements during your measurement week,
the status bar will indicate that your measurement week was not completed. When
a measurement week is not completed you will continue on your current
medication step until next month. Your doctor will be informed of the missed
week and may contact you directly.

measurement has been recorded on that date.
• Dates
highlighted with a light blue bar are part of your measurement
week. You should aim to take blood pressure measurements on these days (see

page).
• Dates with

What is a medication plan?
In England
high blood pressure is managed using a
step-by-step approach to medication. A low dose of medication is prescribed at
first, and then depending on the blood pressure response, higher doses, and
additional medications, may be required. The steps that should be taken are
very clearly defined by national guidelines for hypertension published by NICE.
A medication
plan sets out a series of medication
steps that may be taken if blood pressure is not controlled. In Hypertension
Plus a personalized 3-step plan is decided by your doctor and added to the
Hypertension Plus system. Each step shows the type and dosage level of
medication to be taken. You can view your personal 3-step plan in the
medication tab.
Your blood
pressure week is used to check whether your
current medication has lowered your blood pressure to below your target. If
your blood pressure is above target after your blood pressure week, your doctor
may recommend that you move to the next step in your medication plan. When you
move to the next step in your plan you will be issued a new prescription, and
your medication schedule will be updated in Hypertension
Plus.
If you reach
the end of your 3-step plan and your
blood pressure is not yet below your target, your doctor will likely create a new
3-step plan for you and ask you to start the new plan.
Managing
high blood pressure through this 3-step plan
approach has been shown to be safe and effective in multiple clinical trials,
with many people achieving lower blood pressure results than they had been
under the usual care with their doctor.

of day for each dose.
Example:
If your
medication should be taken 2 times per day, in
the morning with breakfast and in the evening with dinner:
• set “Dose
1″ to breakfast time.
