Values in the table represent the number of patients with item available as downloaded from the WIPAM website or number of devices available for BP telemonitoring.  If investigators did not upload the eCRFs in parallel with patient accrual (e.g., center 300 [Potchefstroom, South Africa]), numbers tabulated are an underestimate.  Investigators received the number of devices as they requested based on their self-assessed potential for recruiting patients.

Centre 055 (Warsaw, Poland) was fully initiated only on 2023-10-03.  Center 305 (Maputo, Mozambique) still needs to receive the HTM devices.  Center 600 (La Plata, Argentina) will be initiated later after it has become possible for APPREMED to purchase HTM devices (OMRON M4 Intelli IT) from a local distributor.  


Items
SCR=screened; Rx=randomised; 
FU= at least 1 follow-up form; SRV=QoL and WHO questionnaire completed; 
PRE=pre-randomisation forms;
DEV=devices available at each centre;
PTR=potential for recruitment;
!!=activation of patient recruitment highly recommended.
