Depressive symptoms in hypertensive patients are linked to poor adherence to treatment. Sedentary behaviours and chronic pain can increase blood pressure and depressive symptoms, respectively. However, the impact of their coexistence on depressive symptoms in older adults with hypertension has not yet been investigated. This study aimed to identify the combined influence of sedentary behaviours and chronic pain on depressive symptoms in older adults with hypertension in Korea.
