Description

Gonzalo Cuentas-Canal and co-authors report groundwork for a hypertension trial in Puno, Peru, in a 2025 paper. The ANDES trial rides on HEARTS, the Americas-wide push to control blood pressure and diabetes in primary care, and the team checked how ready the region truly is.

They surveyed 414 health facilities and found readiness under thirty percent for both hypertension and diabetes care. Small posts and basic centers lagged far behind larger ones. Interviews with fifty-five health workers blamed low priority, broken supply chains, and thin training. A companion survey of 204 patients scored how faithfully they take their medicine and keep appointments. The portrait tells the trial exactly where support must land first.
