Quality of life measurement in patients with hypertension in Cyprus.
Cardiovascular diseases and hypertension may have a significant impact on the quality of life of those who suffer from these conditions. The aim of the present study was to measure health-related quality of life among Cypriot patients suffering from hypertension and/or dyslipidaemia, as well as to investigate any temporal changes in their quality of life at 3 and 6 months from the initial visit. ⋯ Hypertension had little association with mobility and physical activities, indicating that performing physical activities was not limited by hypertension. However, hypertension seems to be more strongly related to anxiety and depression.
