Promoting compliance with antihypertensive medication
Abstract
One of the key areas identified for action in ‘The Health of the Nation’ (Department of Health, 1992) is a reduction in the number of deaths from cerebrovascular accident. The major precursor of stroke is elevated blood pressure, and although efficacious medication exists for the control of hypertension, non-compliance in patients with this condition is notoriously high. This article examines ways to successfully address this problem and reduce morbidity. Consideration of psychosocial variables emphasizes that compliance with antihypertensive medication regimens is a multifactorial problem, but one that can be solved. Nurses, mindful of barriers to compliance, can encourage and support the patient in taking the prescribed antihypertensive medication.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
