Abstract
High blood pressure is a major cardiovascular risk factor. It concerns more than 50% of the French population over 50 years of age [1]. Therapeutic compliance is a complex phenomenon and many authors have described various barriers to adherence that have been classi ied in ive dimensions by the World Health Organization: social/ economic, health system related, disease related, related to the treatment or to the patient [2,3]. In hypertensive patients, therapeutic compliance is de ined by the patient’s ability to comply with antihypertensive treatment and associated non-drug measures. This ability is in luenced positively or negatively by emotional, behavioral and social factors that interact with each other [4,5]. Chronic diseases requiring long-term treatment with many life-behavior changes that are associated with poor treatment adherence leading to deleterious effects for both the patient and the community.
