ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study hypertension control, follow up and the factors associated with the rate of hypertension control.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Through a community-based study, the routine data were collected through a community hypertension managing software for one year.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were 3375 hypertension patients above 60 years old recruited in the information system. In the baseline, the rate of blood pressure control was 63.5%, and arranging intervals up to 6 months was 66.9%. Hypertension control rate for the baseline, the third month and the sixth month was 61.8%, 62.4% and 61.6%, respectively (chi2 = 0.16, P = 0.69). Among hypertensives whose blood pressure was stabilized in baseline, hypertension control rates for the third month and the sixth month was 72.9.8% and 72.1%, respectively (chi2 = 0.26, P = 0.61). Blood pressure stabilized over 6 months in comparing with others, and the proportion for regular taking medication was 96.2% and 97.7% (chi2 = 3.58, P = 0.06). The proportion for physical activity, less salt intake, weight control was significantly higher in the patients whose blood pressure control well over 6 month.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Rate of blood pressure control among elderly patient with hypertension who frequently consults the doctor in the community is high. Ineffectiveness in systolic and diabetes control is the important factor, which decreases the rate of blood pressure. Physical activity, less salt intake, and weight control are of help to hypertension control. For those, the blood pressure are stabilized, a follow up with 3 to 6 months interval is appropriate.</p>
