    An instrument was designed to measure the adhesion to the hypertension treatment using a tool composed of 10 items Likert-type scale. The construct validity through factorial analysis and reliability by using Cronbach's Alpha was evaluated. The factorial analysis allowed the grouping of the items around the factors that make up the construct. The alpha value obtained (0.515) corresponds to a moderate value which means that the instrument can be used as a proper technique to collect data.
