dc.description.abstractThis study aims to assess the self-care profile of patients diagnosed with hypertension. The research was descriptive and cross-sectional and conducted between August 2024 and January 2025 with 209 patients diagnosed with hypertension who voluntarily participated. Data were obtained using a "Patient Information Form" and the "Hypertension Self-care Profile Scale." The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 22.0. The findings revealed that the total mean score of the Hypertension Self-care Profile Scale was 168.46 (SD: 24.64). Among the subscales, the mean score for self-efficacy was 55.16 (SD: 8.71), for behavior was 51.79 (SD: 9.84), and for motivation was 61.51 (SD: 8.03). A positive correlation was observed between the overall self-care profile and its subscales. This study determined that self-efficacy and behavior subscales were at a moderate level, whereas the motivation subscale was at a high level. Regular physical activity, healthy eating, limiting salt intake, medication adherence, stress management, blood pressure monitoring, weight control, and strengthening social support systems are recommended to enhance the levels of self-efficacy, behavior, and motivation subscales in hypertensive patients. © 2025, Inonu University.
