Abstract: High Blood Pressure (BP, hypertension) is a leading chronic condition and has become the main risk factor for many high-risk diseases such as heart attacks. But hypertension is a chronic disease which can be effectively prevented and controlled only, if the physiological parameters of the patient are constantly monitored, along with the full support of the health education and professional medical care. To achieve the early diagnosis of hypertension and smart healthcare a smart healthcare architecture has been designed. Smart mobile healthcare system has been designed to improve patient-doctor interaction and to promote the self-management of chronic diseases by the patients themselves. The developed system provides intelligent, user-friendly and secure, medical and well-being decision support through embedded software in mobile devices by utilizing specific sensors and data from customized information systems. In this study, a reasoning method for smart healthcare is proposed for hypertension management and all systems are integrated and tested for evaluations.
