This qualitative research study was conducted in Nigerian PHCs with patients, non-physician health workers, administrators and primary care physicians to inform contextual adaptations of Kaiser Permanente Northern California's hypertension model and the World Health Organization\u2019s HEARTS technical package for the system-level, Hypertension Treatment in Nigeria (HTN) Program.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Purposive sampling in 8 PHCs identified patients (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 8), non-physician health workers (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 12), administrators (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 3), and primary care physicians (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 6) for focus group discussions and interviews. The Primary Health Care Performance Initiative (PHCPI) conceptual framework and Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) domains were used to develop semi-structured interviews (Appendix 1, Supplemental Materials) and coding guides.

Specific features of the PHCPI framework considered important included: accessible and person-centered care, provider availability and competence, coordination of care, and proactive community outreach. Participants also identified patient-level factors, such as knowledge and beliefs about hypertension, and financial and transportation barriers that could be addressed with better communication, home visits, and drug financing. Participants recommended using existing community structures, such as village health committees and popular opinion leaders, to improve knowledge and demand for the HTN Program.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>These results provide information on specific primary care and community contextual factors that can support or hinder implementation and sustainability of an evidence-based, system-level hypertension program in the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria, with the ultimate aim of scaling it to other parts of the country.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s43058-021-00197-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,30]],"date-time":"2021-08-30T11:02:28Z","timestamp":1630321348000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Stakeholder perspectives to inform adaptation of a hypertension treatment program in primary healthcare centers in the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria: a qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Rosemary C.
