Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a digital education program can help people with high blood pressure (hypertension) manage their condition better. The program aims to improve self-care behaviors and health literacy by teaching participants how to use digital tools, follow healthy lifestyle habits, and take their medicines regularly. Researchers will compare two groups. One group will receive digital education that includes short videos, brochures, and podcasts about blood pressure control and how to use online health platforms such as e-Nabız (Turkey's national e-health system). The other group will not receive this education. Participants will attend two sessions during two weeks. The main questions are: Does digital education improve self-care and e-health literacy in people with hypertension? Does it help participants take their medicine as prescribed and maintain healthy habits such as diet and exercise?
