So good self-management skills are needed in effort to improve the patient's ability to manage CHD risk factors, compliance with taking medication and achieving reduced blood pressure. The development of technology makes the use of mobile phones a necessity. Therefore, mobile phone-based self-management interventions are expected to be effective in improving patients' ability to self-manage to achieve medication compliance and reduce blood pressure. Increased compliance with taking medication and a decrease in blood pressure. The design used is a case study with an innovative design in the form of applying research results regarding mobile phone-based self-management interventions for coronary heart disease patients. The self-management intervention took the form of personal education using e-booklets and short WhatsApp text messages for 8 weeks. And the standard questionnaire consists of MMAS8 and SCC HDI. It is known that there is a decrease in systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), as well as a decrease in total cholesterol levels. Apart from that, there was an increase in patient medication adherence scores and an increase in the self-management ability of CHD patients. There was a significant effect of mobile phone-based self-management intervention on medication adherence, SBP and DBP values, total cholesterol, and self-management abilities.
