The prevalence of hypertension in our population is on the rise, with an estimated 160 million hypertensive patients nationwide, but the rate of hypertension awareness, treatment and control is low. Control of hypertension is the main measure to prevent cardiovascular disease. Stroke is a major disease that threatens the health of our population, and controlling hypertension is the key to stroke prevention. The goal of treatment is to bring hypertensive patients up to standard through antihypertensive therapy in order to minimize the overall risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Treatment options are determined according to risk stratification. Blood pressure starts at 110/75 mmHg, and there is a continuous positive correlation between increasing blood pressure levels and cardiovascular disease risk in the population. People with normal high blood pressure (120-139/80-89 mmHg) should improve their lifestyle to prevent hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The goal of blood pressure lowering is to reduce blood pressure to less than 140/90 mmHg in patients with normal hypertension, less than 150 mmHg in older adults, and less than 130/80 mmHg in hypertensive patients with diabetes or renal disease. Diuretics, blockers, ACEIs, calcium antagonists, ARBs, and low-dose combination agents can be used as starting and maintenance medications for antihypertensive therapy, and the choice of medication is made on a patient-by-patient basis. Most hypertensive patients require 2 or more antihypertensive drugs to achieve their target blood pressure.
