The objective of this study was to investigate the self-care behaviors among hypertensive patients in primary care.
A cross-sectional survey, with 318 hypertensive patients, was conducted in a rural area in Beijing, China, in 2012.
Participants were mainly recruited from a community health clinic and completed questionnaires assessing their self-care behaviors, including data on adherence to a prescribed medication regimen, low-salt diet intake, smoking habits, alcohol consumption, blood pressure monitoring, and physical exercise.
The logistic regression model was used for the analysis of any association between self-care behaviors and age, gender, duration of hypertension, self-rated health, marital status, education level, diabetes status, or body mass index.
Subjects that adhered to their medication schedule were more likely to have hypertension for a long duration (OR, 3.44; 95% CI 1.99–5.97).
Older participants (OR, 1.80; 95% CI 1.08–2.99) were more likely to monitor their blood pressure.
Subjects who did not partake in physical exercise were more likely to be men, although the difference between genders was not significant (OR, 0.60; 95% CI 0.36–1.01).
Patients with shorter history of hypertension, younger and being males have lower self-care behaviors.
Primary care providers and public health practitioner should pay more attention to patients recently diagnosed with hypertension as well as younger male patients.
