Instead, it presents a summary of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms to provide the clinician with a rational basis for treatment, and goes on to describe the consequences of hypertension in terms of target organ damage, the various sub-groups, secondary hypertension, clinical assessment and investigation, treatment, new developments, national guidelines and standards, pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, operating on the hypertensive patient, hypertensive emergencies and social impact.
