Objective: to determine the factors associated that contribute to the non-attendance of the arterial hypertension control program. Materials and methods: The present study was descriptive with a quantitative approach; it was carried out in the city of Montería in an ESE Public Hospital. The information was collected through the application of a semi-structured survey made up of 16 questions and applied to 17 patients who did not attend the arterial hypertension control program. Results: 65% of patients are women, most of them claimed to be illiterate, dedicated mainly to housework, belonging to the subsidized regime, with high blood pressure for more than 5 years. They assured that the main reason for non-attendance was due to lack of accompaniment followed by transportation problems. Conclusions: A disease such as arterial hypertension requires adequate and timely management to reduce the risk of complications, especially the development of comorbidities.
