Over the years, the rate of people with blood pressure problems, whether hypertension, hypotension or heart failure, has increased drastically. This is due to the lifestyle that society has adopted, since it has left very important aspects for health such as a healthy diet and exercise. Over time this lifestyle has triggered a significant degradation of health, especially in the cardiovascular aspect. Which can be avoided with a better lifestyle and with monitoring and control of our blood pressure to perform a constant analysis of the behavior of this variable. That is why, through this work, the implementation of a blood pressure monitoring and recording system based on the FIHR standard of the HL7 family has been proposed. The main objective is to provide patients with a mobile application that allows them to adequately control their blood pressure and their records, so that timely preventive measures can be taken by analyzing these records.
