dc.description.abstractBackground Hypertension is a common chronic disease that causes serious complications. Therefore, its management is critical. Many factors affect the management of hypertension, such as care satisfaction and antihypertensive medication adherence.Aim This study investigated the relationship between hypertensive patients' satisfaction with hypertension care and their antihypertensive medication adherence.Materials and Methods This descriptive-correlational study was conducted between October 2016 and February 2017. A total of 407 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study. The data were collected using the descriptive questionnaire, the Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (PACIC) to determine care satisfaction, and the Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (MASES-SF). Blood pressure, body height, and weight were also measured.Results Patients had a low mean PACIC score and a good mean score on the MASES-SF. Their PACIC scores differed by age, gender, number of daily antihypertensive medications, time since last examination due to hypertension, getting information about hypertension, and blood pressure control status (p < 0.05). Their MASES-SF scores differed by perceived economic status, time since hypertension diagnosis, duration of antihypertensive medication use, time since last examination due to hypertension, and blood pressure control status. In addition, there was a weak positive and significant correlation between PACIC and MASES-SF scores (p < 0.001).Conclusions Patients have low satisfaction with hypertension care and good antihypertensive medication adherence. As satisfaction with hypertension care increases, adherence to antihypertensive medication increases.en_US
