People living with resistant hypertension (RH) are at high risk of adverse cardiovascular events. The British and Irish Hypertension Society has identified suspected RH as a condition for which specialist guidance may improve rates of blood pressure control and help clinicians identify those individuals who may benefit from specialist review. In this position statement we provide a practical approach for the investigation and management of adults with RH. We highlight gaps in the current evidence and identify important future research questions. Our aim is to support the delivery of high-quality and consistent care to people living with RH across the UK and Ireland.
难治性高血压(RH)患者发生不良心血管事件的风险很高。英国和爱尔兰高血压协会已将疑似RH确定为一种疾病,对此提供专科指导可能会提高血压控制率,并帮助临床医生识别那些可能从专科评估中受益的个体。在本立场声明中,我们为成人RH的调查和管理提供了一种实用方法。我们强调了当前证据中的差距,并确定了未来重要的研究问题。我们的目标是支持为英国和爱尔兰的RH患者提供高质量和一致的护理。
