Abstract

Among chronic pathologies, Systemic Arterial Hypertension is highlighted in the Family Health Strategy (ESF), due to its high prevalence among users and with a great impact on morbidity and mortality in the Brazilian population and the world. In view of this, based on the home visit carried out by Community Health Agents (CHA), it was observed that there was inadequate control of the blood pressure levels of users with high blood pressure in the territory and who did not have adequate monitoring for the treatment of the disease. In view of this, the present study aims to develop an intervention plan for the care of hypertensive users, contributing to the reduction of the problems caused by this disease in the local population of the Basic Health Unit (UBS) FORNO II, Pilar - AL, through educational activities in the community and planning and organizing the health team to optimize the functioning of the UBS, as well as the creation of the Operative Group for hypertensive patients, with monthly meetings, with the attention of the health team, focused on risks and multidisciplinary and pharmacological monitoring adequate. To prepare this project, the situational diagnosis technique of the population in the coverage area was used and subsequently the Situational Strategic Planning for the organization of actions aimed at the elaboration and continuity of the group. For the theoretical basis of this work, research was carried out in the virtual library collection of the Public Health Education Center (NESCON), publications from the Ministry of Health and information provided by the health team at UBS FORNO II. The results are expected, at the end of the work, to achieve better rates in controlling the Blood Pressure of UBS users, reducing comorbidities associated with Hypertension.
