- W3119169624 abstract "Objectives Novel care models are needed to address the large burden of hypertension globally. We aimed to explore how patients in rural Uganda experience and perceive hypertension in order to understand factors that may inform development of a patient-centred care model for hypertension management in this setting. Design We conducted one-time, in-depth qualitative interviews focusing on participants’ experiences and perceptions of the meaning and management of hypertension. Setting Outpatient clinic at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital in Uganda. Participants We enrolled patients who had hypertension and had used antihypertensive medication for at least 1 month. We used purposive sampling to recruit 30 participants with similar representation by gender and by absence or presence of comorbid conditions. Results Participants had been diagnosed and initiated care at various clinical stages of hypertension, which impacted their understanding of hypertension. Several participants saw hypertension as a chronic disease that can lead to complications if not controlled, while others attributed symptoms typically associated with other diseases to hypertension. Participants described inconsistent access to antihypertensive medications and difficulty with transport to the clinic (time needed and expense) as the major barriers to access to care. Initiation and maintenance of care were facilitated by family support and ready access to health facilities. Many participants identified an understanding of the important lifestyle and dietary changes required to control hypertension. Conclusions Patients with hypertension in rural Uganda demonstrated a varied understanding and experience with hypertension. Interventions leveraging family support may help with patient education and clinical management. Integration of patient perspectives into the care model, patient-centred care, may serve as a successful model for hypertension and potentially delivery of care for other non-communicable diseases in Uganda and other similar resource-limited settings." @default.
