Abstract

Objective: to verify the effects of supported self-care on the blood pressure and
cardiometabolic profile of hypertensive individuals.

Method: randomized clinical trial developed with 78 hypertensive patients monitored by the Family Health Strategy in the municipality of Cajazeiras - PB - Brazil. The intervention consisted of nursing consultations based on supported self-care. The control group followed up with the usual monitoring by the health team. For data collection, a sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire, blood tests, blood pressure and anthropometric measurements were used.

Results: There was a reduction in weight, abdominal circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, and Body Mass Index in the intervention group, with significant improvement in blood pressure. No significant improvement was seen in the control group.

Conclusion: supported self-care showed positive effects on the participants’ blood pressure and cardiometabolic profile, minimizing risk factors and configuring a methodology with promising potential when applied by nurses. REBEC - RBR-5m5qg8
