Abstract：Objective To evaluate the effect of management model guided by clinical pharmacists on elderly patients with hypertension.Methods From August 2016 to November 2017,80 elderly patients with hypertension in Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University were randomly divided into intervention group (n =41)and control group(n =39).The intervention group had 8 rounds of health education focusing on healthy lifestyle and medication adherence during hospitalization and follow-up.The control group only had 2 times of health education.Antihypertensive therapeutic effect was analyzed 3 months after discharge.Results Seventy patients(87.5％) completed 3-month follow-up,with 35 cases in each group.Standard rate of blood pressure in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group [1O0.0％ (35/35) vs 80.0％ (28/35)] (P ＜ 0.05).Smoking rate in the intervention group was lower than that in the control group[2.9％ (1/35) vs 20.0％ (7/35)] (P ＜ O.05).Awareness score of antihypertensive agents in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group[(1.9 ± 0.3) vs (2.3 ± 0.5)] (P ＜ 0.05).Medication compliance score in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group [(1.8 ± 0.5) vs (2.4 ± 0.5)] (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Clinical pharmacists-guided disease management model can help improve the standard rate of blood pressure and the medication compliance in elderly patients with hypertension.
