Approximately 1,2 billion people worldwide suffer from arterial hypertension. Among these patients, less than half receive effective treatment. Poor blood pressure control contributes to the development of complications such as stroke or coronary artery disease. A patient with such complications automatically becomes a patient at very high cardiovascular risk, and thus requires personalized and effective treatment, not only of hypertension, but also of its complications. Despite the advancement of the disease, lifestyle modification and correct choice of pharmacotherapy can protect the patient from developing heart failure and prevent acute cardiovascular events. |
