DIAZ PINERA, Addys María et al. Multicomponent Intervention to Reduce Gaps in the Hypertension Care and Control Process. Rev. Finlay [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.2, pp. 184-195. Epub 30-Jun-2022. ISSN 2221-2434.
Background:
the evidence on Public Health interventions to improve deficiencies in the care and control of hypertensive people continues to be insufficient.
Objective:
to implement a multicomponent intervention to reduce these gaps in the Julio Antonio Mella Polyclinic in the Guanabacoa municipality, to evaluate the intervention process, its effectiveness and the fidelity of its implementation.
Method:
in relation to the results obtained in the baseline study, national and international technical recommendations, a multicomponent intervention was designed that will have the following components: reorganization of health services, training of health personnel, empowerment of patients and community participation. The effectiveness of the intervention will be evaluated through a quasi-experimental study (before and after). The intervention will cover the aforementioned polyclinic, the ten baseline study clinics, and the population served by them. Two years after the start of implementation, a population survey will be applied again and the difference in the magnitude of the pre-post intervention population gaps will be estimated. In addition, the process will be monitored and the fidelity of the implementation of the intervention will be evaluated.
Results:
reduce existing gaps in the process of care for hypertensive patients, identify their magnitude in relation to the baseline.
Conclusions:
the study will provide evidence to the Cuban Ministry of Public Health and other countries, especially in Latin America, to improve the care of chronic patients.
