Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of a pharmaceutical care protocol via teleconsultation in the management of uncontrolled hypertension with pharmaceutical care carried out in elderly patients assisted in primary health care. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How effective is a pharmaceutical care protocol via teleconsultation on the clinical outcomes of elderly people with uncontrolled hypertension, when compared to in-person pharmaceutical care? 2. How effective is a pharmaceutical care protocol via teleconsultation in adherence to the treatment of elderly people with hypertension, when compared to in-person pharmaceutical care? Participants will undergo four visits. Two visits will be for the application of instruments and measurement of clinical parameters to be carried out at the beginning and end of follow-up (visits 1 and 4). These will be carried out in a pharmacist's office at the pharmacy by previously trained pharmacists and pharmacy students. Visits 2 and 3 will be pharmaceutical consultations to be carried out in person and/or via telepharmacy. Researchers will compare pharmaceutical care via telepharmacy with in-person pharmaceutical care to see how effective these services are in controlling blood pressure in elderly patients with uncontrolled blood pressure.
