Users enrolled with hypertension, with blood pressure below 150/90 mmHg in the last 6 months = numerator 2. Hypertensive ratio < 65 years, with blood pressure < 150/90 = (numerator/denominator) * 100 **Remarks:** * In the calculation of the metrics of this indicator, production data from the Vitacare system were not considered. Due to technical issues, for the November 2016 records, the data do not include records from the LVT Health Region. * Data for this indicator are temporary for the most recent published month. As a rule, on the last day of month N+ 1 (N=“last published month”), there will be an update of them and their increase is likely to be increased at national level.
