Expanding hypertension services in low- and middle-income countries requires efficient and effective service delivery approaches that meet the needs and expectations of people living with hypertension within the resource constraints of existing national health systems. Ideally, a hypertension program will extend treatment coverage while maintaining service quality, maximizing efficient resource utilization and improving clinical outcomes. In this article, we discuss lessons learned from HIV differentiated service delivery initiatives, and make the case that the same approach should be adopted for hypertension programs.
在中低收入国家扩大高血压服务需要高效和有效的服务提供方法,这些方法要满足国家卫生系统资源限制范围内的高血压患者的需求和期望。理想情况下,高血压项目将扩大治疗覆盖面,同时保持服务质量,最大限度地提高资源利用效率并改善临床结果。在本文中,我们讨论了从艾滋病毒差异化服务提供举措中吸取的经验教训,并认为高血压项目也应该采取同样的方法。
