Impact of Self-monitoring of Blood Pressure and Self-titration of Medication in the Control of Hypertension (ADAMPA)

"The intervention of the ADAMPA trial is not pharmacological but an intervention that modifies usual clinical practice. The intervention of self-monitoring and self-titration of the medication is composed of 3 elements:~1. Education of the patient: information and training on hypertension, its risks, management, the benefits of an adequate control and the generic measures for an optimal control.~2. Training for self-monitoring: Patients will be trained to perform the self-measurement of blood pressure correctly (and recording their values in the sheet enabled for this purpose)~3. Training for self-titration: patients will be instructed on the target BP numbers, individualized for each patient, on the mode of action against specific figures, including self-adjustment of drug treatment."
