This article provides a review and comparison of the new National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance for hypertension with guidelines from the United States (US) and Europe. The NICE and European guidelines recommend diagnosing hypertension at a higher level than the American guidelines. NICE suggests less stringent targets for treatment compared to both the American and European guidelines, while using similar treatment regimens. The article also highlights differences in interpretation of data for setting targets, interventions, drug therapy, and non-pharmacological therapy between these guidelines. The text discusses the differences in guidelines for the treatment of hypertension between various organizations, including NICE, ESC/ESH, and ACC/AHA. One major difference is the recommendation for single agent therapy versus two agents as the first step. The guidelines also differ in their recommendations for non-pharmacological interventions such as weight loss, exercise, alcohol intake, and dietary changes. The text highlights the influence of the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) on the guidelines and the varying interpretations of its results. Additionally, the text mentions the lack of specific advice for BP management in the elderly population and the focus on frailty as a guide for treatment. Overall, the text emphasizes the importance of hypertension management and the ongoing updates and revisions in guidelines. [Extracted from the article] |
