The control rate remains low in most countries. Telemedicine offers possibilities to improve blood pressure control. The past two decades witnessed the fast evolving telecommunication from telephone transmission to smart mobile phone technology for telemedicine. There is some evidence from randomized controlled trials that telemonitoring improves blood pressure control. However, it requires co-interventions. The emerging new technology may offer even more possibilities in telemonitoring and co-interventions, for instance, an interactive platform between patients and health professionals for the management of hypertension. Telemedicine might ultimately change the situation of the unsatisfactory management of hypertension in many communities. It helps fully utilize antihypertensive treatment, the most effective cardiovascular prevention, to achieve the goal of ending atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis in humans.enhypertension; technology; telemedicine; telemonitoring[SDGs]SDG3antihypertensive agent; antihypertensive agent; arteriosclerosis; atherosclerosis; awareness; blood pressure monitoring; body mass; circadian rhythm; diastolic blood pressure; drug cost; health care access; heart rate; human; hypertension; lifestyle; medical decision making; medication compliance; oscillometry; pulse rate; randomized controlled trial (topic); Review; systolic blood pressure; telemonitoring; blood pressure; blood pressure monitoring; hypertension; telemedicine; Antihypertensive Agents; Blood Pressure; Blood Pressure Monitoring, Ambulatory; Humans; Hypertension; Telemedicinereview10.1111/jch.14194334846172-s2.0-85099765971WOS:000610430400001https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85099765971
