Resumo
The lack of compliance to hypertensive treatment is the
major challenge for all professionals who work and in-
vestigate this area. Raises costs and cardiovascular risks
because of the poor control of blood pressure (BP). Many
theories willing to explain and guide forms to commit the
patient with a chronic disease with his own care, were
developed with enthusiasm, without otherwise being able
to explain most of the situations and justify the low compli-
ance to treatment. The “educational”, “believe in health”,
“stimulus to emotion”, “behavioral” and “self-regulation”
models, each one with it particular point of view explained
partially the causes of non compliance. The studies of
abandon hypertensive treatment are different for deal-
ing with various factors that lead to a non compliance
behavior: the patient, the disease, the treatment and the
relation health care provider-patient. Until now, despite
all the attempts, final explanations and solutions to this
problem were not found. There are strong data showing
that the relation among doctor and patient might be the
key element in facing this problem, that when solved will
come up with a better control in BP levels and a lower
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
