[Study on community health management and control of hypertension in patients aged 35 years and above in China, 2015].

Objective: To understand the current status of community health management, treatment and control of hypertension in patients aged 35 years and above in China in 2015, and identify the influencing factors. Methods: Using the questionnaire survey results and physical measurement information collected by China Chronic Diseases and Nutrition Monitoring System in 2015, hypertension patients aged 35 years and above diagnosed at township health center level (community health service centers) or above were selected as the research subjects. The patients were complexly weighted to analyze their general characteristics, community health management, treatment and control status. Results: This study included 23 974 hypertension patients aged 35 years and above diagnosed by medical and health institutions at township level and above in 2015. After complex weighting, the community health management rate of hypertension patients aged 35 years and above was 54.10% (95%CI: 51.02%-57.17%), the standardized community management rate was 45.72% (95%CI: 42.93%-48.51%), the treatment rate was 88.16% (95%CI: 87.00%-89.31%), and the control rate was 22.67% (95%CI: 21.25%-24.09%), the treatment control rate was 27.76% (95%CI: 26.09%-29.42%). Multivariate analysis showed that patients in urban areas as well as in rural areas who were aged over 65 years old (OR=1.40, 95%CI: 1.05-1.87; OR=3.11, 95%CI: 2.22-4.36), taking medicine as prescribed (OR=2.15, 95%CI: 1.46-3.15; OR=1.35, 95%CI: 1.13-1.62), monitoring blood pressure (OR=2.34, 95%CI: 1.88-2.90; OR=3.10, 95%CI: 2.72-3.53) were more willing to accept community health management of hypertension. Urban hypertension patients with high education level (OR=0.51, 95%CI: 0.39-0.66), moderate alcohol consumption (OR=0.69, 95%CI: 0.57-0.84) or excessive alcohol consumption (OR=0.73, 95%CI: 0.58-0.92) had a poor acceptance of community hypertension management. Overweight (OR=0.74, 95%CI: 0.61-0.91; OR=0.83, 95%CI: 0.71-0.98), obesity (OR=0.54, 95%CI: 0.45-0.65; OR=0.67, 95%CI: 0.54-0.83) patients in urban areas as well as in rural areas with hypertension had poor blood pressure control, and patient taking medication as prescribed (OR=4.58, 95%CI: 3.16-6.63; OR=2.84, 95%CI: 2.18-3.69) had better blood pressure control. Urban hypertension patients in central China (OR=0.74, 95%CI: 0.61-0.89) or with excessive alcohol consumption (OR=0.72, 95%CI: 0.54-0.97) had poor blood pressure control while urban hypertension patients with other chronic diseases (OR=1.22, 95%CI: 1.04-1.44) and participating in standardized hypertension community management (OR=1.29, 95%CI: 1.06-1.58) had better blood pressure control.Rural hypertension patients who located in central and western China (OR=0.71, 95%CI: 0.58-0.87; OR=0.62, 95%CI: 0.47-0.80), with moderate alcohol consumption (OR=0.81, 95%CI: 0.67-0.98), taking salt more than 6 g per day (OR=0.80, 95%CI: 0.69-0.93) had poor blood pressure control, and the rural hypertension patients who underwent blood pressure monitoring (OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.18-1.61) had better blood pressure control. Conclusions: The community health management of hypertension in patients aged 35 years and above has been improved in China, but there is still a certain gap between the control of hypertension and related indicators. It is necessary to take multi standardized intervention measures for the better prevention and control of hypertension.
