The blood pressure and medicine-taking compliance were assessed in 6 months.Result The observation group was significantly better than the control one in terms of blood pressure and medicine-taking compliance(both P<0.05).Conclusion The post-hospital systematic nursing intervention may help to control the blood pressure of hypertensive patients and enhance their medicine-taking compliance so as to improve the curative effect.
