Abstract:
To investigate the status of application of Chinese Hypertension Prevention and Treatment Guideline (Guideline) by general practitioners (GPs) in Shanghai.A questionnaire survey was conducted among 260 GPs from 8 communities in Xuhui District of Shanghai during March 2011 to December 2012.Among all participants,94.2％ knew the Guideline.The overall correct rate was 56.2％; that of epidemiology,diagnosis,treatment,two-way referral and community management of hypertension was 49.2％,54.5％,60.6％,56.9％ and 32.3％,respectively.There were significant differences in correct rates of the questionnaire between GPs with different age,gender,education and community (P =0.000,0.035,0.000,0.000).The correct rates of epidemiology and treatment in GP teaching bases (58.5％ and 62.6％) were higher than those in non-teaching bases (39.2％ and 58.4％) (P =0.002,0.040).But there was no difference in overall correct rate between these two groups (P =0.095).The results indicate that the understanding and application of Hypertension Guideline by General practitioners in community is insufficient.Teaching hospitals should carry out systematic,comprehensive,sustained,targeted training course in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment levels of hypertension for general practitioners in community.
