Keywords:
Behaviors to control and prevent hypertension, Hypertension, Patients with uncontrolled blood pressureAbstract
This descriptive research studied the predicting factors of behaviors to control and prevent hypertension among patients with uncontrolled blood pressure in Phrae province. The sample were patients diagnosed with essential hypertension by a doctor and who are unable to control their blood pressure after receiving medical treatment in the community hospital and health promoting hospitals in Phrae province. A total of 297 participants were selected using Three- stages cluster sampling method. The research tool was comprised of questionnaire of knowledge, questionnaire of reinforcing factor and enabling factor, and the questionnaires for the control behaviors and prevention of hypertension. The validity of all questionnaires was tested using an index of item objective congruence, which ranges between 0.6-1.0. The questionnaire of knowledge was tested using the KR-20, which showed a result of 0.95 reliability. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient scores of reinforcing factor, enabling factors, and control behaviors and prevention of hypertension questionnaire were 0.76, 0.86, and 0.72, respectively. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and Stepwise Multiple regression analysis with stepwise selection method). The results revealed that factors that significantly predicted the control behaviors and prevention of hypertension at p < 0.001 were knowledge about hypertension and number of associated health problems which accounted for 6.8 % of variance. The equation of prediction in the raw score was
= 99.725 + 0.937 (knowledge about hypertension) - 0.516 (number of associated health problems)
