Objective: To comprehensively summarize the evidence on the preferences, expectations, and values of hypertension management and treatment in hypertensive patients. Methods: From inception through January 2022, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, EBSCO, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched for studies with hypertension value, preference, or expectation. A qualitative retrospective analysis was performed. Results: A total of 24 studies involving 8701 participants were included. Although studies on the preferences of hypertensive patients are difficult to standardize, considerable convergence has occurred: 1) Patients preferred treatment regimens with lower incidence of comorbidities, faster response, lower cost, more frequent blood pressure monitoring, fewer side effects, and more convenient medication. 2) Patients have a crucial role in the treatment, and their physicians are expected to develop a shared patient-centered decision-making model. Conclusion: The results of this systematic review demonstrated that side effects, cost, and convenience are important factors for patients when selecting a treatment regimen for hypertension. Patients often obtain hypertension information from their physicians and prefer shared patient-centered decision-making.
