High rate of uncontrolled hypertension among adults receiving integrated HIV and hypertension care with aligned multi‐month dispensing in Malawi: results from a cross‐sectional survey and retrospective chart review
Uncontrolled hypertension was common among Malawian adults receiving integrated care with aligned MMD and was associated with shorter refill intervals and few antihypertensive medication escalations. Integrated care with aligned MMD is promising, but further work is needed to understand how to optimize hypertension outcomes.
