• Abstract:

  Hypertensive problems constitute a public health problem. The

  management of these problems requires the implementation of health technologies.

  The objective was to analyze the use of health technologies in the production of care

  for people with hypertensive problems. Integrative review conducted in October 2018,

  using the guiding question: how is the use of health technologies in the production

  of care for people with hypertensive problems? The search was performed in the

  databases SciELO, BDENF and LILACS, using the keywords: technology, hypertension

  and family health. Inclusion criteria were articles in Portuguese, published between

  2008 and 2018 that had a relation with the guiding question. Of the 15 articles found,

  05 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. The results included technologies

  focused on hypertensive, hypertension in pregnancy and prevention of risk factors

  for hypertension in children, used different methodological approaches and had as

  sample professionals, users and managers. Regarding the use of health technology,

  the persistence of the biomedical model with emphasis on rules and procedures was

  observed, and attention to hypertension is centered on the medicalization of care.

  Despite the gap in the use of lightweight technologies, some professionals adopted this

  technology in their work process. It was found coexistence between professionals who

  prioritize light technologies and light-hard and hard technologies, with prioritization of

  this. The findings point to the need to reinforce light technologies for the care of people

  with hypertensive problems, as well as the importance of professionals for effective

  care.
