State Hypertension Protocols

One of the important components of the IHCI program is each state's hypertension treatment protocol. Doctors have found protocols to be useful and simple for hypertension care and management.

WHY PROTOCOLS?

In each state, it is possible to adopt a single treatment protocol with consensus of the State governments and relevant stakeholders. Practical treatment protocols with specific medications, dosages, and steps to take if blood pressure is not controlled can streamline care, simplify drug procurement, and improve patient adherence.
