Arterial hypertension is a factor that decreases the quality of life, due to multiple factors in target organs and in its secondary effects of treatment, therefore the objective of the study was to determine the quality of life in university teachers diagnosed with hypertension treated in a hospital center in Callao. It is a quantitative, descriptive-cross-sectional study, made up of a total of 116 participants who answered a questionnaire of sociodemographic aspects and the measurement instrument for quality of life. In their results, 64,7 % (n=75) have a good quality of life, 25 % (n=29) have a fair quality of life and 10,3 % (n=12) have a poor quality of life.
