Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: App hypercross group
  • Other: without App hypercross group
N/A

Detailed Description

To evaluate treatment adherence and blood pressure reduction, through the HiperCross App, between two groups of hypertensive patients in a Hypertension Public Ambulatory in Porto Alegre.

The investigators hope to identify better adherence to treatment, as well as a significant reduction in blood pressure, all of these results will be better evaluated using the HiperCross application.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Blood pressure value [15 minutes]

    systolic Blood pressure and dyastolic Blood pressure

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Morisky scale [15 minutes]

    Medication adherence. The Morisky scale condition and medication specific assessment: 1) measures the level of adherence an medication, 2) measures the severity of Major Depressive Disorder, a determinant of non-adherence 3) identifies why the patient is not taking their medication, 4) determines the risk between non-adherence to BP measures of disease control. 0-1 = Low motivation; 2-3 = High motivation / 0-1 = Low knowledge; 2-3 = High knowledge
