abstract: 'Background: Hypertension control is poor everywhere, especially in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). An effective response requires
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
understanding factors acting at each stage on the patients'' pathway
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
through the health system from entry or first contact with the health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
system, through to treatment initiation and follow up. This systematic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
review aimed to identify barriers to and facilitators of hypertension
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
control along this pathway and, respectively, ways to overcome or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strengthen them. Methods: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Global Health, CINAHL Plus,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and Africa-Wide Information (1980-April 2019) were searched for studies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of hypertensive adults in LMICs reporting details of at least 2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adequately described health system contacts. Data were extracted and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysed by 2 reviewers. Themes were developed using NVivo in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
patient-related (sociodemographic, knowledge and health beliefs, health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status and co-morbidities, trade-offs), social (social relationships and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
traditions) and health system domains (resources and processes). Results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Results: From 2584
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
identified records, 30 were included in the narrative synthesis. At
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
entry, `health systems resources and processes'' and `knowledge and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
beliefs about hypertension'' dominated while `social relations and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
traditions'' and `comorbidities'' assume greater importance subsequently,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with patients making `trade-offs'' with family priorities during follow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
up. Socio-demographic factors play a role, but to a lesser extent than
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
other factors. Context matters. Conclusion: Understanding the changing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
barriers to hypertension control along the patient journey is necessary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to develop a comprehensive and efficient response to this persisting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
problem. PROSPERO Registration: CRD42017074786 Copyright: (c) 2020 The
