St George’s University Hospitals Foundation Trust: Home monitoring of hypertension in pregnancy (HaMpton)

The team implemented an app which enables home monitoring of hypertension in pregnancy in order to reduce hospital visits for monitoring of pre-eclampsia. 

The number of appointments for hypertension monitoring reduced by 53 per cent.

The judges stated that this was an impressive example of aligning the need for a real focus on safety and quality for a very serious condition with patient’s views, clinical expertise and technology.
