Abstract

High-quality hypertension management is a new concept proposed to improve blood pressure (BP) control in Asia. Out-of-office BP measurements, including ambulatory and home BP monitoring, and wearable BP measurement, are recommended for BP assessment. Long-acting antihypertensive agents at full dose or in combination are priority strategies for achieving 24-h (24-h) BP control, reducing blood pressure variability (BPV) and improving time-in-target range (TTR). High-quality hypertension management across multiple disciplines will be a pragmatic strategy for the reduction in the risk of cardio-cerebrovascular and renal complications and mortality among Asian hypertensive patients.
