Brief Summary

Background:Health professionals are responsible for the education of hypertension patients. Aim:The aim of this research is to see how self-efficacy support affects hypertension patients' medication adherence and self-efficacy levels. Methods: This research is randomized controlled interventional research. The research is conducted inTurkey June-December2021.The research sample included 63hypertension patients who met the research's research requirements.According to the sequence of the arrival at the hospital, data were separated into groups with odd(intervention group)and double(control group)numbers.The necessary forms for both groups' pre-test data were filled out face-to-face. The intervention group received hands-on blood pressure measurement training with the "Hypertension Training Manual",including how to self-measure blood pressure.Over the course of the research, patients were asked to check their blood pressure twice a day at home and record the results.The patients in the intervention group were reminded of their blood pressure measurement three times a week by SMStechnique for three months to avoid forgetting it.Three months later, the same forms for the post-test data of both groups were filled out with an online survey method.The data were evaluated using the single-blind study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Self-Efficacy - Efficacy Scale

  3months

• Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale in Hypertensive Patients

  The scale consists of 13 items and is in a four-point Likert type. The scale can be used to determine the lowest 13 and highest 52 points. The increase in the scale score shows that the individuals' compliance with the antihypertensive medication is above average.
