Resumen

FADRAGAS FERNANDEZ, Alejandro Luis et al. Blood hypertension intervention in a physician´s office. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 2004, vol.20, n.2. ISSN 0864-2125.

An intervention study on hypertension was carried out in a group of hypertensive patients from the physician´s office no.3 from "Luis Galván Soca" polyclinics in Centro Havana municipality. Of 75 in all, the study was applied to 60 hypertensives to find out their level of knowledge about their underlying disease in terms of concepts, definitions and complications, among other things. After the research, the result of the applied surveys yielded that the patients knew veryllittle about their underlying disease and that, after the training comprising 4 interventions, increased knowledge about their disease in general was observed, so we believe that the objective of this research study has been achieved.

Palabras clave : Blood hypertension; health education; hypertensive intervention.
