Purpose.
To evaluate provider adherence to national guidelines for the treatment of hypertension in African Americans.
Design.
A descriptive, preexperimental, quantitative method.
Methods.
Electronic medical records were reviewed and data were obtained from 62 charts.
Clinical data collected included blood pressure readings, medications prescribed, laboratory studies, lifestyle modification, referral to hypertension specialist, and follow-up care.
Findings.
Overall provider adherence was 75%.
Weight loss, sodium restriction, and physical activity recommendations were documented on 82.3% of patients.
DASH diet and alcohol consumption were documented in 6.5% of participants.
Follow-up was documented in 96.6% of the patients with controlled blood pressure and 9.1% in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure.
Adherence in prescribing ACEIs in patients with a comorbidity of DM was documented in 70% of participants.
Microalbumin levels were ordered in 15.2% of participants.
Laboratory adherence prior to prescribing medications was documented in 0% of the patients and biannual routine labs were documented in 65% of participants.
Conclusion.
Provider adherence overall was moderate.
Despite moderate provider adherence, BP outcomes and provider adherence were not related.
Contributing factors that may explain this lack of correlation include patient barriers such as nonadherence to medication and lifestyle modification recommendations and lack of adequate follow-up.
Further research is warranted.
