Characteristics of patients who used a blood pressure (BP) self-screening kiosk and agreed to data transfer

	Practice A (n=60)	Practice B (n=126)
N (%) female	34/60 (56.7)	59 (47.2)
Mean (SD) age, years	52.57 (16.8)	50.1 (14.8)
Average no of kiosk sessions per user*	1.4	1.3
N (%) with prior diagnosis of hypertension	13 (21.6)	15 (11.9)
N (%) screening positive on kiosk who subsequently attended a consultation†‡	21/26 (80.8)	18/19 (94.7)
N (%) screening positive on kiosk who had a prior diagnosis of hypertension†	7/26 (26.9)	3/19 (15.8)
N (%) screening positive on kiosk who subsequently underwent assessment for hypertension using home or ambulatory BP† ‡	0/26 (0.0)	12/19 (63.2)
N (%) with a practice measurement of BP during the intervention period	32 (53.3)	26 (20.6)§
N (%) with a practice measurement of BP during the intervention period before the first kiosk measurement	23 (38.3)	0 (0)
N (%) with a practice measurement of BP during the intervention period after the first kiosk measurement	25 (41.7)	26 (20.6)

*Multiple readings on a single day are counted as a single session.

†Positive screening defined as a systolic reading of over 135 mm Hg and/or diastolic reading of over 85 mm Hg.

‡Subsequently defined as on any day after the positive screening was taken on.

§Measurements taken on the same date as kiosk measurements were excluded as indistinguishable from kiosk readings.
