Summary

Hypertension is a multifactorial clinical condition, it may not cause symptoms and its diagnosis is often delayed. And even when it is diagnosed early, some patients cannot manage an adequate blood pressure.

There are several hypotheses for the non-control of blood pressure, among them the difficulty of lifestyle change, irregular treatment with antihypertensive drugs, non-individualized treatment. Studies haven shown that tools such as multiprofessional team and hypertension leagues are important strategies to obtain a better outcome in the hypertension treatment, but new approaches are still necessary. Health Coaching is an individualized form of follow-up, promoting better adherence, better nutrition, smoking cessation, regular physical exercise and regular use of drugs, thus reducing cardiovascular mortality.
