Abstract

Home blood pressure management, including self-monitoring and medication self-titration, is an efficient and cost-effective tool. Although its use is increasing globally, little is known about the feasibility of such interventions in low and middle-income countries. Further, the perspectives and experiences of healthcare providers who play a big role in ensuring the success of home blood pressure management interventions have not been documented. This qualitative study was conducted with a total of 35 healthcare providers (60% female, mean [SD] age = 37.3 [6.9 years] years), through 4 in-depth interviews from Peru, and 8 in-depth interviews and 4 focus groups from Cameroon. Study participants (healthcare providers) include physicians (primary care physicians), specialists (cardiologists and geriatricians), and nurses that were purposively recruited from two hospitals in two of the largest cities in both countries. Results were thematically analyzed by two researchers. Themes derived were related to feasibility and acceptability, and largely reflected providers in both countries endorsing home blood pressure management. Providers’ concerns were in three main areas; 1) safety of patients when they self-titrate medications, 2) resources such as healthcare financing, local hospital policies that support communications with patients for home blood pressure management, and 3) sustainability through patient adherence, incorporating home blood pressure management within clinical guidelines and hospital policies, and complementing with continued health education and lifestyle modifications. According to providers, home blood pressure management may be feasible and acceptable if tailored multi-faceted protocols were introduced bearing in mind local contexts.

Abstract

For decades national nutrition guidelines have been developed to promote and maintain population health. In the United States, federal nutrition and health policies are far-reaching. They influence and shape nutrition programs, services and research priorities; healthcare and public health systems as well as other sectors such as food and agriculture. Dietary Reference Intakes and Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs) are the primary sources of nutrition guidance and strategies to promote health at individual and population levels. The 2015–2020 DGAs base their recommendations on the most current, sound research evidence on nutrition and health and published clinical practice guidelines on disease prevention and health promotion. They also acknowledge that nutrition and other lifestyle behaviors are influenced by many factors operating at individual, socio-cultural, environmental, multisectoral and policy levels. As such, public health approaches that target individuals, communities, public policies, and environments are recommended to promote healthful dietary patterns and physical activity. Alliances and partnerships across multiple sectors are needed to facilitate changes such that healthy lifestyle choices become normative behaviors. Achieving healthful dietary patterns and physical activity that meet the 2015–2020 DGAs will reduce risks for major chronic diseases and promote wide-ranging favorable health outcomes.
