Journal Article
Hanley, J., Fairbrother, P., McCloughan, L., Pagliari, C., Paterson, M., Pinnock, H., …McKinstry, B. (2015). Qualitative study of telemonitoring of blood glucose and blood pressure in type 2 diabetes. BMJ Open, 5(12), https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2015-008896

Objectives To explore the experiences of patients and professionals taking part in a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of blood glucose, blood pressure (BP) and weight telemonitoring in type 2 diabetes supported by primary care, and identify factors...

Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project (2015)
Journal Article
MacNab, M., Lee, S. H., McCloughan, L., Hanley, J., McKinstry, B., & Pinnock, H. (2017). Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project. BMC Health Services Research, 15(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12913-015-1135-2

Background: Pulse oximetry could potentially contribute to self-monitoring. NHS Lothian’s ‘Light Touch’ service provided COPD patients with a self-management plan based on symptoms and oximetry. The service was overseen (though not actively monitor... Read More about Oximetry-supported self-management for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: mixed method feasibility pilot project.

Mixed methods feasibility study for a trial of blood pressure telemonitoring for people who have had stroke/transient ischaemic attack (TIA) (2015)
Journal Article
Hanley, J., Fairbrother, P., Krishan, A., McCloughan, L., Padfield, P., Paterson, M., Pinnock, H., Sheikh, A., Sudlow, C., Todd, A., & McKinstry, B. (2015). Mixed methods feasibility study for a trial of blood pressure telemonitoring for people who have had stroke/transient ischaemic attack (TIA). Trials, 16(1), 117. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13063-015-0628-y

Background Good blood pressure (BP) control reduces the risk of recurrence of stroke/transient ischaemic attack (TIA). Although there is strong evidence that BP telemonitoring helps achieve good control, none of the major trials have considered th...

Telemonitoring for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a cost and cost-utility analysis of a randomised controlled trial (2015)
Journal Article
Stoddart, A., van der Pol, M., Pinnock, H., Hanley, J., McCloughan, L., Todd, A., Krishan, A., & McKinstry, B. (2015). Telemonitoring for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a cost and cost-utility analysis of a randomised controlled trial. Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare, 21(2), 108-118. https://doi.org/10.1177/1357633x14566574

We compared the costs and cost-effectiveness of telemonitoring vs usual care for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A total of 256 patients were randomised to either telemonitoring or usual care. In the telemonitoring arm, th...
