BuMP – Blood Pressure Self-Monitoring in Pregnancy

Image from Licence Details: BuMP – Blood Pressure Self-Monitoring in Pregnancy

Applications: Medical device, remote monitoring, patient triage

Features Benefits
  • An app for patients to input blood pressure readings during pregnancy that is linked to a central database for clinicians to monitor.
  • BuMP ensures the correct advice is provided based on the patient’s risk.
  • Triages and flags those who need clinical support.
  • Automatically identifies patients at risk and adapts protocols based on risk level.
  • Closely monitors patients with high blood pressure at risk of pre-eclampsia.
  • Remote monitoring.
  • Allows pregnant patients to self-monitor their blood pressure.
  • Reduced visits to the clinic.
  • More convenient and time-saving.
  • Avoids “white coat hypertension” due to a medical setting.
  • First large scale (n>3000) randomised controlled trial evidence for self-monitoring of blood pressure to detect and manage hypertensive pregnancy using the BUMP App. (Notes)
  • Empowers patients to actively monitor their health, improving their understanding and satisfaction with their antenatal care.
