ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Mobile health technology's impact on cardiovascular risk factor control is not fully understood. This study evaluates the association between interaction with a mobile health application and change in cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Participants with hypertension with or without dyslipidemia enrolled in a workplace-deployed mobile health application-based cardiovascular risk self-management program between January 2018 and December 2022. Retrospective evaluation explored the influence of application engagement on change in blood pressure (BP), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and weight. Multiple regression analyses examined the influence of guideline-based, nonpharmacological lifestyle-based digital coaching on outcomes adjusting for confounders. Of 102 475 participants, 49.1% were women. Median age was 53 (interquartile range, 43-61) years, BP was 134 (interquartile range, 124-144)/84 (interquartile range, 78-91) mm Hg, TC was 183 (interquartile range, 155-212) mg/dL, LDL-C was 106 (82-131) mg/dL, and body mass index was 30 (26-35) kg/m2. At 2 years, participants with baseline systolic BP ≥140 mm Hg reduced systolic BP by 18.6 (SEM, 0.3) mm Hg. At follow up, participants with baseline TC ≥240 mg/dL reduced TC by 65.7 (SEM, 4.6) mg/dL, participants with baseline LDL-C≥160 mg/dL reduced LDL-C by 66.6 (SEM, 6.2) mg/dL, and participants with baseline body mass index ≥30 kg/m2 lost 12.0 (SEM, 0.3) pounds, or 5.1% of body weight. Interaction with digital coaching was associated with greater reduction in all outcomes.CONCLUSIONS:
A mobile health application-based cardiovascular risk self-management program was associated with favorable reductions in BP, TC, LDL-C, and weight, highlighting the potential use of this technology in comprehensive cardiovascular risk factor control.Palabras clave
