Brief Summary  

Hypertension (HTN) is a public health menace contributing up to 45% of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) deaths and 51% of stroke deaths. [1] In India up to 33% of urban and 25% of the rural population are afflicted with the disease. [2]

 

Attainment of blood pressure (BP) goals in the population at large is a major challenge and area of focus of health systems worldwide. Over the years, BP targets have been continuously redefined as the armamentarium of drugs has expanded. The recently published the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) 2017 HTN guidelines advocate a paradigm shift in the way we manage abnormal BP.
