N2 - In this study we developed the integrated model, the Citizen Telemedical Care Service (CTCS) for hypertension based on the smart medical services system for managing chronic disease. A total of 160 participants were collected, of whom 4 (2.5%) withdrew from this study, leaving 156 (97.5%) for further statistical analyses. After controlling for participant socioeconomic characteristics, the odds ratios for high BP still reached a significant level in the sixth month (OR=0.84, p<.0001), the third month (OR=0.79, p<.0001) and the first month (OR=0.80, p<.0001). As for the total BP readings in one month, there was no significant difference between the sixth month and the first month. The overall findings suggested that CTCS Model interventions have shown promise as an effective mode of technologies, and specific health problems. There are implications for incorporating this approach in the treatment for people with chronic health conditions.
