Abstract

The Systemic Hypertension is an important public health problem, due to its high prevalence in Brazil and is a risk factor for diseases such as Stroke and Acute Myocardial Infarction, some of the main causes of mortality in Brazil. This study aims to develop a proposal for intervention on the working process of the ESF Tejuco in Brumadinho-MG, to modify the approach of hypertensive patients. This was done by a situational diagnosis of the area, detecting problems on which interventions were possible in the management of hypertensive patients, a literature review and preparation of an action plan that involves registration, classification of patients according to disease severity, organizing the agenda and creating an operating group for hypertensive patients.
