Suggestion on China Mode of Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment of Hypertension

Hypertension is the top chronic disease in both the world and China, and its complications of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in our country. Recently, plenty of foreign researches have suggested that the community-based mode of the prevention and treatment of hypertension is an effective way to improve the control rate. In the 20th century, China conducted research on community intervention, focusing on health education, which have achieved remarkable results but not been widely promoted. Since the beginning of the 21st century, China has also carried out many studies on the prevention and treatment of hypertension. However, there are still many shortcomings in the management of hypertension. Therefore, to improve the control rate of hypertension in China, we should actively explore the modes of prevention and treatment suitable for China's national condition.
