Hypertension management in patients with vascular disease.
Journal of Vascular Nursing : Official Publication of the Society for Peripheral Vascular Nursing 2004 June
Hypertension (HTN), the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, is a modifiable risk factor for atherosclerosis. However, all too often, HTN is not well controlled in patients with vascular disease. Studies have demonstrated that patients whose blood pressure is controlled achieve at least a 50% reduction in cardiovascular events compared with similar patients whose blood pressure is not controlled.

This article will highlight the new recommendations for HTN management and how they can be applied to the patient with vascular disease.
