Title

KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE AND PRACTICE OF IRANIAN HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS REGARDING HYPERTENSION

Pages

  14-19

Abstract

 Introduction: This study aimed at evaluating KNOWLEDGE and awareness of HYPERTENSION and the risk factors for HYPERTENSION among hypertensive patients.Methods: In this study, 110 hypertensive patients were enrolled and filled out two self-administered questionnaires. The first questionnaire was about the demographic characteristics and the second one was about the KNOWLEDGE (n=10), ATTITUDE (n=9) and PRACTICE (n=8). The internal consistency and the stability of the questionnaires were approved. The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman correlation coefficient were used for statistical analysis.Results: Seventy-three percent of participants know the normal range of HYPERTENSION. Most of the participants truly knew that stress (87.3%), obesity (70.9%) and aging (48.2%) are risk factors for HYPERTENSION. About 60% of participants knew the complications of uncontrolled HYPERTENSION. About 82.7% of participants believed that after adaptation of body to HYPERTENSION, there is no need to use antihypertensive drug. About 13.6% of participants measured their blood pressure daily and 11.8% of them measured it once a month. The educational level of participants was significantly associated with KNOWLEDGE score (P=0.01). There was a significant correlation between KNOWLEDGE (P<0.001) and ATTITUDE and also ATTITUDE and PRACTICE (P<0.001) scores.Conclusion: These findings have important implications for developing proper and continuous self-management HYPERTENSION education programs in IRAN which should mostly emphasize on the practical information about control and prevention programs.
