Effects of a novel contextual just-in-time mobile app intervention (LowSalt4Life) on sodium intake in adults with hypertension: pilot randomized controlled trial.
Researchers evaluated the effect of a just-in-time adaptive mobile application intervention, LowSalt4Life, on reducing sodium intake. They found that, in a randomized controlled pilot study in adults with hypertension, a contextual just-in-time mobile application intervention demonstrated a greater reduction in dietary sodium intake over 8 weeks compared to controls. There was not a statistically significant difference in self-confidence following a low sodium diet, 24-hour urinary sodium excretion, or dietary intake of sodium measured by 24-hour dietary recall compared to control over 8 weeks. They recommended a larger clinical trial is to elucidate further the effects of the LowSalt4Life intervention on sodium intake and blood pressure.
