Abstract

Objective: To explore hypertensive inpatients’ self-management in general hospitals, analyze influencing factors, and provide evidence for targeted interventions. Methods: A cross-sectional survey used a demographic questionnaire and HSMBQ. Data were analyzed with SPSS 27.0 (descriptive, univariate, MLRA). Results: Patients’ total self-management score was (62.16 ± 9.58) (standardized: 67.57%), moderately low. MLRA identified 10 key factors (P<0.05): marital status, monthly income, smoking, alcohol consumption, regular medication, comorbidities, disease duration, recent blood pressure, self-perceived health, psychological state. Conclusion: Hypertensive inpatients in general hospitals require better self-management, particularly psychosocial management.
