Patients with hypertension who monitor their blood pressure at home and adjust their medication according to pre-agreed rules can experience greater falls in blood pressure than patients receiving conventional care. The findings of the TASMINH2 trial are reported in an Article published Online First and in an upcoming Lancet, written by Professor Richard J McManus, Primary Care Clinical Sciences, University of Birmingham, UK, and colleagues.
