Table 2 BP readings pre and post-feasibility study

From: Towards an integrated blood pressure self-monitoring solution for stroke/TIA in Ireland: a mixed methods feasibility study for the TASMIN5S IRL randomised controlled trial

 

Intervention

Self-monitoring (n = 9)

Control

Usual care

(n = 5)

Baseline BP (mean of 2nd and 3rd readings)

 Systolic BP, mean (SD)

143.7 (9.49)

146.2 (9.42)

 Diastolic BP, mean (SD)

79.3 (11.37)

78.6 (15.14)

Post-trial BPa (mean of 2nd and 3rd readings)

 Systolic BP, mean (SD)

120.8 (16.35)

140.5 (3.86)

 Diastolic BP, mean (SD)

69.4 (9.07)

73.1 (14.97)

  1. aThe change in BP between baseline and post-trial cannot be compared for statistical significance due to the small numbers in the feasibility study
