Brief Summary:
Hypertension is an important public health problem all over the world due to its high prevalence and its association with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. At the same time, it is a condition in which acquired factors, genetic and metabolic disorders, characterized by increased intra-arterial blood pressure, occur together . According to the World Health Organization, hypertension is defined as systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or above According to the Arterial Hypertension Management 2018 Implementation Guide of the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Hypertension, it is estimated that there are more than 1 billion hypertension patients in the world and this number will reach 1.5 billion by 2025. In our country, there are approximately 20 million individuals with hypertension. It is thought to be Hypertension treatment is a lifelong process that includes lifestyle changes and patient education along with medical treatment.Turkish Endocrinology and Metabolism.
The aim of hypertension treatment is to ensure that blood pressure decreases to the targeted level, to minimize target organ damage and complications caused by hypertension, to eliminate symptoms and reduce drug side effects, to ensure patient compliance with treatment and to provide self-management skills by enabling the patient to take an active role in his own treatment. The concept of self-management; It includes providing individuals with knowledge and skills regarding disease management, providing support to maintain the individual's self-care, supporting the decision-making process, and helping to recognize and cope with problems. The main goal in hypertension treatment is to control the patient's blood pressure. Achieving and maintaining self-management is also one of the most effective factors in controlling blood pressure. Inadequately treated and low self-management In hypertension patients, blood pressure control is inadequate and health risks increase. Therefore, all strategies implemented to increase self-management in hypertension patients also have positive effects on the individual's blood pressure control and disease prognosis.
