Association of blood pressure control, lifestyle and socioeconomic status with self-rated health in patients with hypertension: a national cross-sectional study
Better SRH among hypertensive adults was associated with controlled BP, healthier lifestyle patterns and higher socioeconomic status. Conversely, comorbidities, smoking, older age and antihypertensive treatment were linked to poorer perceived health. Integrating SRH screening into HTN management may help identify vulnerable individuals and inform targeted interventions addressing behavioural and socioeconomic determinants of health.
