Estratégia de Saúde Da Família e a Construção de um Projeto de Intervenção para Melhoria do Controle Pressórico de Pacientes Hipertensos Assistidos na Unidade Básica de Saúde Neuza Maria Barbizan (Trincheira) de Betim, MG

Abstract

Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Brazil, especially among populations served in Primary Health Care. This study proposes the implementation of a care group for hypertensive patients at the Trincheira Basic Health Unit (BHU) in Betim, Minas Gerais, aiming to promote health, improve quality of life, and prevent complications related to poor blood pressure control. The methodology includes a mixed approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods, and is divided into three phases: situational diagnosis, care group implementation, and results evaluation. In the first phase, data will be collected from the PEC/e-SUS system and interviews will be conducted with healthcare professionals and patients to identify challenges in hypertension management. The second phase involves establishing a multidisciplinary group with biweekly meetings focused on blood pressure monitoring and health education. The final phase consists of assessing the impact of the intervention by comparing baseline data with post-intervention results. It is expected that this project will enhance hypertension control among Trincheira BHU patients, increasing treatment adherence and reducing SAH-related complications. Additionally, this project seeks to provide educational and psychological support to patients, facilitating self-care and strengthening their connection with healthcare services. The implementation of a hypertensive care group has the potential to improve health indicators and could serve as a model for other BHUs in Brazil.
