高血压是全球死亡率的主要危险因素，约占所有心血管事件的一半，每年有近1100万人死亡。1，2不断上升的患病率和顽固的低控制率表明，这场危机可能只会恶化。全世界只有五分之一的成年人成功地将高血压（BP）治疗到140/90 mm Hg以下。虽然非洲和南亚的低收入国家的统计数据最令人沮丧，但人们也越来越担心美国的BP控制恶化。最新估计显示，只有24%的高血压成年人符合更严格的BP目标，即< 130/80 mm Hg。二、三
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for global mor-tality, accounting for roughly half of all cardiovascular events and nearly 11 million deaths per year. 1, 2 The rising prevalence and stubbornly poor control rates indicate that this crisis is likely only to worsen. A mere 1 in 5 adults worldwide have their high blood pressure (BP) successfully treated to below 140/90 mm Hg. While the most dismal statistics prevail across lower-income countries in Africa and South Asia, 1 there is also growing concern over worsening BP control in the United States. Latest estimates show that only 24% of hypertensive adults meet the more stringent BP goals of< 130/80 mm Hg. 2, 3
