Easy to use and helpful: The Tensana app makes it simple to record the results of self-measurements. Data can be transferred manually or automatically. The app supports guideline-compliant home measurements, sends regular reminders for measurement times, and provides an initial assessment of the readings right away. Over time, this creates a meaningful blood pressure curve that can be analyzed using various statistics. In addition to blood pressure readings, other vital signs can be recorded, and medication management can even be organized. The app is available free of charge from the major app stores. The premium version offers additional options.
To make it easier to assess treatment success, the records with all values, charts and statistics for a selected period can be requested as a PDF. An interface also allows measurement and vital data to be transmitted directly into the practice software. This lets the doctor respond immediately to changes for example by adjusting medication or ordering other measures.
The German Hypertension League has now certified the Tensana app with the "Digital Health Assistant" seal. In its certification, the League looks at whether the app reflects current medical standards, as well as user-friendliness, data protection, and transparency about the app's purpose and limitations. The review is carried out by experienced physicians, health scientists and data protection experts.
