    The objective of this research was to determine the level of knowledge about self-care in patients with hypertension at the Uldarico Rocca Es Salud Hospital in Villa El Salvador, Lima, 2022. This study is descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional, with a sample of 50 participants. For data collection, the survey technique was used, and the instrument was the questionnaire. The self-care questionnaire used was developed by Montero and Méndez (2011), with a reliability of 0.843. It is concluded that there is a direct and significant relationship between the level of knowledge and self-care, as well as between its dimensions: risk factors, treatment, and clinical complications. It is recommended to implement continuous programs for hypertensive patients to raise awareness of the importance of self-care in improving their quality of life through proper nutrition, physical activity, and medication treatment.
