Implementing Self-Measured

Blood Pressure:

7 Steps for SMBP and more

• Outline steps to use Self-Measured Blood

Pressure (SMBP)

• Review available resources to support

implementation and awareness of SMBP

Objectives

Improving Health Outcomes

1No new

preventable cases

of type 2 diabetes

2Everyone with

hypertension has their blood pressure at goal

Defining Self-Measured Blood Pressure

Self-measured

blood pressure (SMBP)

refers to blood pressure

(BP) measurements

obtained by the patient

outside of a clinical setting

“Self-monitoring alone is not associated with lower BP or better control,

but in conjunction with co-interventions (including systematic

medication titration by doctors, pharmacists, or patients; education; or

lifestyle counselling) leads to clinically significant BP reduction which

persists for at least 12 months. The implementation of self-monitoring

in hypertension should be accompanied by such co-interventions.”

Tucker KL, Sheppard JP, Stevens R, Bosworth HB, Bove A, Bray EP, Earle K, George J, Godwin M, Green BB, et al. Self-monitoring of blood pressure in hypertension: a systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis. PLoS Med. 2017;14:e1002389.

doi: 10.1371/journal.pmed.1002389

Using SMBP in clinical practice

HOW SMBP can be used to:• Confirm a diagnosis of sustained hypertension, white coat hypertension or

masked hypertension

• Assess BP control and effectiveness of changes in treatment

• Engage patients in self-management of BP

WHEN SMBP can be used:• Before or after a scheduled encounter

• After a medication or treatment change

• At clinician discretion

WHO Physicians, other clinical team members, patients

www.ama-assn.org/smbp-guide

7 Steps for SMBP

1 Identify patients for SMBP

2 Confirm device validation and cuff size

3 Train patients

4 Have patients perform SMBP

5 Average results

6 Interpret results

7 Document plans and communicate to patients

7 Steps for SMBP

1 Identify patients for SMBP

• Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of HTN

• Patients without a diagnosis

2 Confirm device validation and cuff size

• Automated, validated BP measurement devices with

appropriately sized upper arm cuffs

• Adequate memory storage

7 Steps for SMBP

3 Train patients

• Educate on preparing for and performing SMBP

4 Have patients perform SMBP

• Provide instructions on duration of monitoring and

number of measurements to take each day (i.e. 7 days of

monitoring with 2 sets of measurements performed twice daily)

• Determine when and how results will be shared

7 Steps for SMBP

5 Average results

• Document and use average systolic and average

diastolic blood pressures for clinical decision-making

6 Interpret results

• Initiate, intensify or continue treatment

7 Document plans and communicate to patients

US Blood Pressure Validated Device Listing™

The AMA does not play a role in how devices are included on the VDL. BP measurement devices are selected for listing on the VDL through an independent review process that determines which available BP measurement devices meet established VDL Criteria for the validation of clinical accuracy and is not in any way determined or influenced by the AMA.
