Berhe DF, et al. – The intent of this paper was to inspect the determinants of achieving blood pressure control in patients with hypertension and of treatment intensification, in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure (BP). The level of controlled BP and treatment intensification practice was found to be low. A need arose for in–depth comprehension and interventions of the identified determinants, for instance, uncontrolled BP on consecutive visits, older age and type of hospital.
