ABSTRACT
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, remains a significant contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality globally. Lifestyle modification is a key component of hypertension prevention and management. This scoping review examines genogram-based and other healthy lifestyle education models aimed at improving health behaviors in families of hypertension patients. An extensive search was conducted using Science Direct, PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar databases for studies published between 2014 and 2024. The search employed combined keywords related to hypertension, health education, lifestyle interventions, genograms, family support, and educational models. From 94 identified articles, 17 met the eligibility criteria for detailed analysis. Selected studies were evaluated for their objectives, study design, variables, and outcomes. Findings reveal that while many interventions exist, the prevalence of hypertension remains high, underscoring the need for effective family-centered educational strategies. Interventions incorporating lifestyle modifications, adherence to hypertension management guidelines, and the use of genograms to map family health history show promise in fostering behavioral change and improving hypertension control within families. This review highlights the potential of combining genogram-based approaches with other educational models to support sustainable healthy lifestyle changes in families affected by hypertension.
