Abstract: Objective: To explore and analyze the current research status and development trend of community health education among hypertension patients from 2005 to 2015. Methods: CNKI, WanFang database and VIP database were searched for literatures on this field from January 2005 to November 2015. The growth of the literature, publication distribution, core journals, key words, etc. were analyzed with bibliometric approach. Results: Totally 911 articles were retrieved. The related articles increased yearly. And 167 articles (18.33%) were published in core journals and there were only 3 funds-supported articles. The top three provinces where the first authors came from were Jiangsu, Guangdong and Zhejiang. The primary study types were experimental study and quasi-experimental study. Elderly, quality of life and complication were the three most frequently used key words. Conclusion: Researches on community health education for hypertension patients has become a hot topic and achieved some advances. However, the researches should be enhanced in remote areas. It is necessary to improve the quality of research design and the number of qualitative research. Besides, the researchers need to pay more attention to the new trend of hypertension, pre-hypertension population, the application of TCM and the evaluation system in this field.
