Methods KTH integrated health education was established. Before the intervention and 12 weeks after intervention, the Questionnaire of Hypertension Knowledge, the Primary Hypertension Patients′Compliance Scale and Chinese version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL-100) were used to investigate 84 cases of elderly patients with hypertension of four pension institutions in three poverty-stricken counties of Chaoyang city. Results After 12 weeks of intervention, the awareness rate of hypertension knowledge, compliance behavior and quality of life scores were higher than those before intervention, the complete awareness rate was 100.0% (84/84) vs. 3.5% (3/84);the high level of compliance behavior was 48.8%(41/48) vs.15.5%(13/84),the difference was significant (χ2=156.41, 86.27, P<0.01). The total score of quality of life was 86.95±5.41, higher than that before the intervention (76.93±6.60), the difference was statistically significant (t=8.662, P<0.01).
