Objective To explore the influence of behavioral intervention on the self-intervention level and blood pressure control of middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertension. Methods Sixty-two middle-aged and elderly hypertensive patients in the community were selected as the research subjects and divided into the control group (n=31) and the experimental group (n=31) by random number table method. The control group received routine community intervention, and the experimental group received behavioral intervention on this basis. The self-intervention level, blood pressure level and satisfaction of the two groups of patients before the intervention and 6 months after the intervention were compared. Results The self-intervention level of the experimental group after intervention was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The blood pressure level was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The satisfaction rate of the experimental group was 96.77%, which was higher than that of the control group (77.42%, P < 0.05). Conclusion Among middle-aged and elderly hypertensive patients in the community, behavioral intervention is conducive to improving their self-intervention level, alleviating the problem of high blood pressure in patients, enhancing patient satisfaction, and has strong application significance.
