Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study utilizes the I-Change Model to empower individuals in literacy-limited settings, where the majority of the population is illiterate. By leveraging multimedia tools-such as an educational video and a pictorial infographic-we aim to promote self-care practices among individuals suffering from hypertension. Through these tailored interventions, we seek to enhance awareness, improve hypertension management, and encourage behavioral change, even in low-literacy communities
