Summary

This study aims to investigate the relationship among self-efficacy, anxiety, depressive symptoms, quality of life, lifestyle, heart rate variability and blood pressure control; and to examine the effects of self-titration strategy on self-efficacy, anxiety, depressive symptoms,heart rate variability, sodium excretion, lifestyle modification,quality of life, and blood pressure control in patients with hypertension.

Conditions

  • Primary Hypertension

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Self-titration strategy

The self-titration strategy allows patients or medical professionals to adjust their medicine (additional, maintain, or decrease dose) depending on a bespoke plan. The bespoke plan for hypertensive patients involves setting target blood pressure, self-monitoring blood pressure, recording blood pressure readings and constructing a medication titration schedule. Each medication titration step is conducted based on the average home BP measurement readings.
