To determine the effect of planned awareness program on knowledge regarding prevention of hypertensive crisis in hypertensive patients. Current literature is mainly on hypertension (HTN) control limited accessible studies on hypertension crises but these studies lack the detailed awareness program regarding prevention of hypertension crisis in diagnosed hypertension patients.
Hypertension crisis(elevation of BP to 180/110mmHg or greater) is the very extreme form of poorly controlled hypertension that can develop in individuals with known pre-existing HTN and in patients who are not aware that they have hypertension.
