Summary

This WHO digital adaptation kit focuses on self-monitoring of blood pressure in pregnancy and aims to provide a common language across various audiences – health programme managers, software developers, and implementers of digital systems – to ensure a common understanding of the appropriate health information content requirements within a defined health programme area, as a mechanism to catalyse the effective use of these digital systems.

This DAK also complements the health worker-facing Digital adaptation kit for antenatal care: operational requirements for implementing WHO recommendations in digital systems (ANC DAK), in which self-care interventions such as SMBP may be integrated.

L1 Narrative guidelines

WHO recommends self-care interventions within a safe, supportive and enabling environment with appropriate links to the health system. This first edition of the DAK on self-care interventions focuses on self-monitoring blood pressure in pregnancy in which WHO suggests making the self-monitoring of blood pressure during pregnancy available as an additional option to clinic blood pressure monitoring by health workers during antenatal contacts, among individuals with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
