The objectives of this study were to study by self-measurement, the level of hypertension control in our hypertensive patients treated on an outpatient basis, to determine the frequency of controlled hypertensive patients, to identify the cardiovascular risk factors associated with uncontrolled hypertension and describe the treatment of our hypertensive patients. It is estimated that in 2025 almost three quarters of the hypertensive world population will live in developing countries, with a cumulative impact from the phenomenon of massive urbanization. Thus, the French Society of HTA defines self-measurement as the measurement of BP by the subject himself, conscious and voluntary. This was a prospective, descriptive and cross-sectional study that was carried out over a period of six (6) months from 08/01/2018 to 02/28/2019. Was randomly included in this study, all hypertensive patients followed on an outpatient basis, on antihypertensive treatment, having agreed to participate in the study after informed consent. In this study, conducted over a period of six months, we report the situation of 100 hypertensive cases treated on an outpatient basis in the cardiology department of the HNID. Among the 19 patients who were balanced, 12 were female versus 7 male, i.e. a respective percentage of 61.11% versus 38.9%. Our result is lower than that found by the results of the pilot study "Acti-HTA" where hypertensive controlled by Self-measurement of blood pressure reached 55% of subjects. This study allowed us to determine the clinico-biological factors associated with uncontrolled hypertension, treated on an outpatient basis in the Cardiology department of the HNID as well as the high prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension in 81% of cases with number more controlled in the evening than in the morning.
