SUMMARY. Hypertension (HT) – one of the most significant public health problem worldwide. The cause of all control blood pressure (BP) may be the behavior, lifestyle patient's ability to take advice on the treatment of hypertension, different social status.
The aim of study was to investigate changes in indicators of QOL outpatients with hypertension I, II and III levels according to data questionnaire SF-36.
Materials. The study included 126 patients with verified diagnosis of primary hypertension of them – 86 women (68 %) and 40 men (32 %) aged from 22 years to 81 years. The average age of patients was (53.3±3.03) years. To assess QOL of patients with hypertension while receiving treatment using SF-36 questionnaire that enables evaluate subjective patient satisfaction their physical, mental state, social functioning.
Conclusions. During the study the dynamics of QOL in patients with hypertension found that when I stage hypertension compared with hypertension II degree were significantly (p<0.05) higher rates of QOL Scale PF – at 6.34 % (p<0.05 ) versus 24.2 %, respectively (p<0.05)), RE 12.0 % (p<0.05) and GH 60.6% (p <0.05). Comparison of QOL in patients with hypertension stage II and III established significant differences on scales PF, RE, SF, BP and GH (p<0.05).
