Abstract

Hypertension continues to be the most common preventable cardiovascular risk factor in Europe. Blood pressure (BP) control in the continent remains largely unsatisfactory. For this reason, development of new guidelines has appeared timely and appropriate. In this article, we highlight the novel or controversial aspects of 2018 European Society of Cardiology/European Society of Hypertension (ESC/ESH) guidelines and discuss how they will influence physicians’ management of hypertension in Europe.
