This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of information-based health management combined with the knowledge-attitude-practice (KAP) model in 200 hypertensive patients. The intervention group showed a higher blood pressure control rate compared to the control group (P<0.05), alongside improvements in medication adherence, self-management abilities, health behaviors, and quality of life.
Key findings
- The intervention group had a higher blood pressure control rate compared to the control group (P<0.05).
- Both groups showed significant reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressures, with lower values in the intervention group (P<0.05).
- Patient satisfaction with management was significantly higher in the intervention group (P<0.05).
Why it matters
Effective management of hypertension is crucial for reducing cardiovascular risks. This study highlights the potential of combining information-based strategies with educational models to enhance patient outcomes and satisfaction.
