Abstract:
The management model “primary care in community,team service,first contact physician responsibility and two-way referral” was implemented for migrant workers with hypertension in the community.The hypertensive patients under the management for over six months were assigned as management group; the patients who were registered but not under management for over six months served as the control group.The number of new cases detected in hypertension screening increased from 32 in 2008 to 701cases in 2010; and number of hypertensive patients under management increased from 7 cases to 348 accordingly.A questionnaire survey was conducted in 464 hypertensive patients,including 196 cases in management group and 268 cases in control group with a response rate of 94.9％ (186/196) and 92.5％ (248/268) respectively.The results showed that drug compliance rate in management group (168/186,90.3％ ) was significantly higher than that in the control group ( 26.6％,66/248,P =0.00 ).The rate of blood pressure control in management group (87.1％,162/186 ) was significantly higher than that in the control group (25.8％,64/248,P =0.00).The overall satisfaction (98.9％) in management group was significantly higher than that in the control group (88.7％,P =0.00 ).The results indicate that implementation of the hypertension management in migrant workers improves the health seeking behavior and blood pressure control of patients.
