Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention based on self-monitoring and self-adjustment of medication in poorly controlled hypertensive patients.;Secondary Objective: - Evaluate its impact on adherence to treatments, lifestyles, quality of life, occurrence of adverse events, use of health services, and costs of care. - Estimate its efficiency (cost-effectiveness). - Evaluate the visions and experiences of patients, caregivers and health professionals about self-management, self-monitoring and self-adjustment of antihypertensive medication;Primary end point(s): Difference in mean systolic blood pressure, in mmHg, at 12 months follow-up between the intervention and control groups, determined in consultation with a validated automatic electronic sphygmomanometer;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Mean systolic blood pressure, in mmHg, at 6 and 24 months of follow-up. - Mean diastolic blood pressure, in mmHg, at 6, 12, and 24 months of follow-up. It will be done in the same way and at the same time as the systolic blood pressure - Percentage of patients with systolic blood pressure <140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure <90 mmHg at 6, 12 and 24 months of follow-up. - Scoring in the EuroQoL-5D at 6, 12 and 24 months of follow-up. - Proportion of days covered by PDC, calculated by dividing the number of days of medication dispensed by the number of days of the observed follow-up period. Patients with PDC equal to or greater than 80% will be considered adherent. In the case of polymerization, patients with PDC=80% in all drugs will be considered adherent. - Persistence, defined as time of continuous use of the corresponding drug from the beginning of the follow-up until its discontinuation (when the patient does not pick up the medication after a 60-day grace period, after the period with medication available from the Dispensation). - Therapeutic inertia (IT) defined as the quotient between the number of patients who had not been modified by the pharmacological treatment divided by the number of patients with the SST and / or blood pressure measurements Sistólicatomadas in consultation at 6, 12, and 24 months of follow-up higher than the target values ??according to the recommendations of the European Society of Hypertension and European Society of Cardiology.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6, 12 y 24 months | — |
