Co-modulation of clinical courses of hypertension and depression in public health facilities in Ethiopia: A six-month follow-up study protocol

Abstract

The co-occurrence of hypertension and depression is increasing both in magnitude and complexity, negatively impacting treatment outcomes of both conditions. Given that both conditions are chronic, the impact of each condition over time on the other needs to be well understood. This project aims to examine how each condition affects the course and outcome of the other over a six-month follow-up period.
