Narrative
Our study on the use of multifaceted mobile health technology for cardiovascular risk detection and management in rural areas in Indonesia has found that this technology can improve the detection of cardiovascular risk, increase the use of preventive drug therapies in high risk individuals and reduce blood pressure among people with high cardiovascular risk. The technology is now implemented in a scale up programme by the District Health Agency, Malang, East Java, Indonesia, with the support from a GACD-NHMRC grant on scaling-up evidence based intervention for hypertension.Impact date | 2019 |
