A study on the etiology and management of hypertension was conducted in the urban-rural town of Basoko. Its objectives were: - Determine factors that cause high blood pressure; - Assess the management of the disease at the Basoko General Reference Hospital; - Implement adequate therapeutic strategies for the management of high blood pressure, based on the recommendations of the High Authority for Health (HAS-2005). A sample of 32 hypertensive subjects was diagnosed and treated at the Basoko General Reference Hospital. After analyzes, it was revealed that high blood pressure affects people over the age of 55 or older, and predominantly male. Stress, age, alcoholism and smoking are factors that predispose individuals to high blood pressure in Basoko. The treatment of this disease is based firstly on the hygiene-dietetic measures, then follows the treatment with the antihypertensive. The majority of hypertensive subjects hospitalized at the Reference General Hospital were discharged from the hospital with an improved state of health.

Abstract: (french)
Une étude sur l’étiologie et prise en charge de l’hypertension artérielle a été menée dans la ville urbano-rurale de Basoko. Elle avait comme objectifs : - Déterminer les facteurs qui sont à l’origine de l’hypertension artérielle ; - Evaluer la prise en charge de ladite maladie à l’Hôpital général de Référence de Basoko ; - Mettre en place des stratégies thérapeutiques adéquates pour la prise en charge de l’hypertension artérielle, basées sur les recommandations de la haute autorité de la santé (HAS-2005). En effet, un échantillon de 32 sujets hypertendus a été diagnostiqué et traité à l’Hôpital Général de Référence de Basoko. Apres analyses, il a été révélé que l’hypertension artérielle frappe plus les personnes à l’âge supérieur ou égal à 55ans, et avec prédominance du sexe masculin. Les stress, l’âge, l’alcoolisme et le tabagisme sont des facteurs qui prédisposent de plus les individus à l’hypertension artérielle à Basoko. Le traitement de ladite maladie se base en premier lieu sur les mesures hygiéno-diététiques, puis s’en suit le traitement aux antihypertenseurs. La majorité des sujets hypertendus hospitalisée à l’Hôpital Général de Référence était sortie de l’hôpital avec un état de santé amélioré.
