Hypertension is another name for high blood pressure. It can lead to severe complications and increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and death. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels.

Presented as a collection of carefully selected, recent articles from authoritative, well-known journals, this book provides cardiologists and trainees with the latest knowledge and developments relating to hypertension and its management.

Divided into seven sections, the text begins with discussion on blood pressure measurement, diet and lifestyle, and epidemiology. The following sections cover hypertension in women specifically, therapeutics, and pathophysiology, concluding with commentary on hypertension control.
