Wearable Technology for Presumptive Diagnosis of High Blood Pressure Based on Risk Factors

Prada, Eithel Josue Meza, Agullar, Helgar Miguel Angel Herrera, Armas-Aguirre, Jimmy, Gonzalez, Paola A. 01 January 2021 (has links)

The objective of this article is to identify the evolutionary pattern of the Framingham’s score each day in order to determine a presumptive diagnosis of high blood pressure. The technological solution was validated in the social insurance of a public hospital in Lima, Perú. The preliminary results obtained in a diagnostic test show a sensitivity level of 83.33%, a level of precision better than a traditional Framingham´s score for presumptive diagnosis of high blood pressure. Our proposal contributes to the patient’s awareness about the bad routine habits related to lifestyle and promotes the empowerment of data in order to make some changes that influence on the reduction of cardiovascular disease risk. / Revisión por pares
