The VITASENIOR-MT platform was developed as a telehealth solution designed to contribute to improve the health condition and quality of life, promoting safe and independent living of the old adult. It is an \u2018internet-of-things\u2019-based solution relying on the interaction of the old adult with a TV-set to record biometric parameters and to receive warning and recommendations related to health and environmental sensor recordings. We present a pilot study with a male hypertensive patient, aged 81 years old, under anti-hypertensive treatment, with epilepsy, arthritis and paroxistic atrial fibrillation as major comorbidities. The VITASENIOR-MT was installed at the patient\u2019s assisted-dwelling house and a remote follow-up was implemented for 2 months, monitoring daily blood pressure and heart rate, as well as weight and indoor environmental parameters.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/mbp.0000000000000443","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,18]],"date-time":"2020-03-18T23:26:42Z","timestamp":1584574002000},"page":"227-230","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Telehealth monitoring of a hypertensive elderly patient with the new VITASENIOR-MT system: a case study"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Telmo","family":"Pereira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Coimbra, Coimbra Health School, LabinSaude"}]},{"given":"Gabriel","family":"Pires","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Tomar, VITA Lab, Tomar, Portugal"}]},{"given":"D\u00e1rio","family":"Jorge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Tomar, VITA Lab, Tomar, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Diogo","family":"Santos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic Institute of Tomar, VITA Lab, Tomar, Portugal"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"R2-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"301","DOI":"10.1093\/gerona\/glq208","article-title":"The measurement of multiple chronic diseases\u2013a systematic review on existing multimorbidity indices.","volume":"66","author":"Diederichs","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci"},{"key":"R3-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1045","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.118.313236","article-title":"Hypertension management in older and frail older patients.","volume":"124","author":"Benetos","year":"2019","journal-title":"Circ Res"},{"key":"R4-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"96","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arr.2016.01.007","article-title":"Hypertension and aging.","volume":"26","author":"Buford","year":"2016","journal-title":"Ageing Res Rev"},{"key":"R5-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"85","DOI":"10.4103\/2279-042X.155755","article-title":"Polypharmacy in the elderly.","volume":"4","author":"Golchin","year":"2015","journal-title":"J Res Pharm Pract"},{"key":"R6-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2333721416630492","DOI":"10.1177\/2333721416630492","article-title":"Health literacy and older adults: A systematic review.","volume":"2","author":"Chesser","year":"2016","journal-title":"Gerontol Geriatr Med"},{"key":"R9-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"91","DOI":"10.2147\/SHTT.S59498","article-title":"Use of telemedicine-based care for the aging and elderly: promises and pitfalls.","volume":"3","author":"Bujnowska-Fedak","year":"2015","journal-title":"SHTT"},{"key":"R10-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"677","DOI":"10.3233\/THC-140851","article-title":"A review on the technologies and services used in the self-management of health and independent living of elderly.","volume":"22","author":"Arif","year":"2014","journal-title":"Technol Health Care"},{"key":"R11-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1737","DOI":"10.1111\/jgs.15959","article-title":"Effectiveness of ambulatory telemedicine care in older adults: A systematic review.","volume":"67","author":"Batsis","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Am Geriatr Soc"},{"key":"R14-20230924","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1953","DOI":"10.1097\/HJH.0000000000001940","article-title":"2018 ESC\/ESH guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension: the task force for the management of arterial hypertension of the European Society Of Cardiology and the European Society Of Hypertension: the task force for the management of arterial hypertension of the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Hypertension.","volume":"36","author":"Williams","year":"2018","journal-title":"J Hypertens"}],"container-title":["Blood Pressure Monitoring"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.1097\/MBP.0000000000000443","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,24]],"date-time":"2023-09-24T05:04:15Z","timestamp":1695531855000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/10.1097\/MBP.0000000000000443"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,16]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/mbp.0000000000000443","relation":{},"ISSN":["1359-5237"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1359-5237","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,16]]}}}
