The use of traditional and complementary medicine has a long history. As a result of increasing life expectancy of people, chronic and malignant diseases increases. Because of health care workers can not allocate enough time and the reasons such as avoiding the side effects of drugs, patients have increased interest in traditional and complementary medicine methods. It is predicted that the use of these methods will increase even more over time. To protect people from the harmful effects of these methods and to prevent unauthorized use, a variety of arrangements have been made in Turkey and in the world. For this reason, on October 27, 2014 \"Regulations of Traditional and Complementary Medicine Practices\" was published. In this regulation, 15 methods are accepted and their usage areas are expressed. These are phytotherapy, mesotherapy, maggot therapy, prolotherapy, cupping therapy, music therapy, hypnotherapy, homeopathy, hirudotherapy, ozone therapy, osteopathy, reflexology, acupuncture, apitherapy and chiropractic. Generally, patients do not tell their physician that they are using one of these methods. No matter what causes people to use these methods, if they use them unconsciously; diagnosis of diseases may be delayed, side effects may occur, or patients may be damaged by persons who are not authorized to perform these methods. For this reason, physicians should be aware of the tendencies of their patients and protect them from misuse by increasing their awareness.","PeriodicalId":436322,"journal":{"name":"Eurasian Journal of Family Medicine","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131346699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A 42-item questionnaire was used and 19 questions were used to determine the level of awareness among them. Nine measurements were in the office by the researcher and 12 measurements at home by the patient. \u0000\u0000Results: 25.6% of the patients were males and 74.4% were females. The median age was 59 years (IQR=13). The section for scoring the awareness levels revealed following: 27.1% of patients were non-aware, 58.6% had a low level of awareness and 14.3% had a high level of awareness. 72.9% of the patients were aware, 93.1% were taking antihypertensive treatment, while 42.4% measured blood pressures both at home and at office are under control. Awareness level is related to diet, exercise, education, salt usage, blood pressure measurement frequency, doctor referral frequency, education and knowledge level about hypertension, blood pressure monitoring branch, antihypertensive treatment status, hypertension duration, number of antihypertensive drugs and regular usage rates; but hypertension control was only associated with salt use, antihypertensive treatment and number of antihypertensive drugs.\u0000\u0000Conclusion: Hypertension is a common problem in our country and as we have seen in our studies, awareness rates are insufficient. Although the treatment rates are high, the control rates are not sufficient. This suggests that patients' compliance with treatment is not at the desired level. The most important thing to do in this regard is to raise awareness by increasing public awareness about hypertension. In this respect, primary care physicians have a great responsibility.","PeriodicalId":436322,"journal":{"name":"Eurasian Journal of Family Medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131046297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
