Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of the hypertension chronic disease management platform-assisted traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) comprehensive antihypertensive regimen on blood pressure control in the real world, and evaluate patients' satisfaction with this regimen. MethodsA total of 160 patients with primary hypertension were recruited, and the patients were asked to use the hypertension chronic disease management platform for self-management and to decide whether to apply TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen (including Baduanjin for lowering blood pressure, acupoint massage, and Chinese medicinal tea). One month later, the changes in patients' blood pressure and the application rate of each treatment regimen were investigated. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between each regimen and blood pressure changes. Sensitivity analysis was performed by excluding some patients with comorbidities that might affect the use of the regimens to verify the reliability of the research results. Interaction analysis was conducted to explore whether there was a synergistic effect between the regimens, and patient satisfaction was also surveyed. ResultsA total of 149 patients were finally included. Compared with patients who did not use TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen regularly, those who used it regularly had a more significant decrease in diastolic blood pressure (P<0.05). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that the decrease in systolic blood pressure was associated with the use of TCM decoctions, and the decrease in diastolic blood pressure was associated with the use of TCM decoctions and regular use of TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen (P<0.05). Sensitivity analysis suggested that the above research results were stable. The results of interaction analysis showed that there was no interactive effect between antihypertensive Baduanjin and acupoint massage, antihypertensive Baduanjin and Chinese medicinal tea, or acupoint massage and Chinese medicinal tea on systolic and diastolic blood pressure (P>0.05). One hundred and thirty patients (130/149, 87.25%) thought the hypertension chronic disease management platform was helpful or very helpful, and 111 patients (111/149, 74.50%) thought TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen was helpful or very helpful. ConclusionRegular use of TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen helps reduce the diastolic blood pressure level in patients with primary hypertension, and patients have a high degree of satisfaction with the use of the hypertension chronic disease management platform and TCM comprehensive antihypertensive regimen.
