Health Care
• Utilizing the Bluetooth blood pressure device will decrease blood pressure in 30% of the participants from high risk range 160/100 to below or equal to 140/90, which is rising risk, within 8 months.
• Results: 100% of participants decreased blood pressure from high risk range to rising risk range, or better.
Aim Statement
• Reduce health care costs• Diabetes and hypertension on the rise• Ability to track from home = better
monitoring• White coat syndrome• Engages participants• Validates health conditions visually• Increases awareness of health related
behaviors
