| description | Objective: To present the design and methodological framework of a protocol for a population-based cross-sectional survey aimed at assessing the prevalence, knowledge, treatment, and control of hypertension in Tetouan, Morocco. Methods: A cross-sectional design was adopted. The study used a multistage stratified cluster sampling process, which required special attention to minimize potential biases and ensure efficient data collection. Results: The article provides a detailed description of each phase of the survey process, beginning with initial planning, continuing with the sampling stages and physical measurements taken, and concluding with the statistical methods for data analysis. The methodology of the study was designed to provide reliable and current data on the epidemiology of hypertension in the region. Conclusion: This research contributes valuable information for those planning or conducting similar population-based surveys |
