the lack of compliance with the guidelines set by the European hypertension guidelines interfere with the proper treatment of the hypertensive. patients

according to the findings of the survey SHARE, which publishes Journal of Hypertension.



-poll, in which participated 2.629 doctors in primary care and specialists from all over Europe, part of HypertensionCare, the initiative of Daiichi Sankyo that combines medicines, services and knowledge to hypertension.



Madrid, July 2011.-health professionals do not treat in a systematic manner their patients according to the targets posed by European societies hypertension guidelines hypertension and Cardiology (ESH-ESC, according to its English acronym). This is one of the main findings of the survey SHARE (Supporting Hypertension Awareness & Research Europe-wide, i.e. support for awareness-raising and research on hypertension in Europe), whose results are published in Journal of Hypertension.

the lack of monitoring by doctors of the guidelines set by the European guidelines is one of the factors that contribute to a greater extent to increase charges associated with hipertensión1, suffering from more than one billion people and disease causing 7.6 million deaths each year. Only in Spain, it is estimated that they suffer from high blood pressure more than 13 million people. If it is not treated properly, this disease can cause serious cardiovascular complications among the heart attack and stroke. Also, the lack of control of hypertension is one of the main factors of health spending and only in Europe is estimated to cardiovascular health cost of more than 190,000 million euros for the year.



main results . 

SHARE survey has counted with the participation of 2.629 primary care physicians and specialists throughout Europe. according to the results, 90% of respondents say that they do not take measures against high blood pressure of patients so far that the diastolic blood pressure levels exceed levels recommended by guidelines, a figure that rises to 95 per cent of respondents in the case of systolic blood pressure.

in spite of which 82% European health professionals consider that the objectives of blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg marked by guides ESH-ESC are “ correct broadly ”, the average blood pressure which are beginning to see grounds for concern-ing is 149/92 mmHgpretty on top of dictating the guides. Moreover, the interviewed doctors consider blood pressure must achieve an average of 168/100 mmHg to feel who must take immediate action.

“ any patient with blood pressure greater than 140/90 mmHg needs to be addressed properly to reduce his level of hypertension and the risk of cardiovascular disease. To delay treatment, doctors are potentially increasing the possibility of their patients to undergo a cardiovascular event ”, says Professor Roland Schmieder, head of competition unit of clinical research on hypertension and Vascular Medicine of the University Hospital of Erlangen and Professor of internal medicine, Nephrology and hypertensionGermany, and a member of the Organizing Committee of SHARE. “ Medical, we tend to assume that if the patient does not reach its goals of blood pressure is due to their lack of adherence to treatment, but the survey shows clearly that health professionals also can do more to help our patients achieve their goals of hypertension ”, adds Professor Schmieder.

SHARE aims to understand the challenges faced by health workers in achieving their patients to achieve the proposed objectives of blood pressure. It is an initiative sponsored by European leaders in the field of hypertension with the support of Daiichi Sankyo. SHARE is part of HypertensionCare, the platform through which Daiichi Sankyo provides the occupational health services, knowledge and a broad range of medicines based on olmesartan, with the aim of contributing to effectively combat high blood pressure.

A simple analysis of urine allows preventing cardiovascular problems in treatment resistant hypertensive persons

a simple urine analysis allows to prevent cardiovascular problems in people with hypertension treatment-resistant

-A study led from the Mar Hospital demonstrates that the measure of the excretion of albumin in urine, marker of risk and prognosis of cardiovascular pathology directly associated with high blood pressure, may demonstrate a poor control of blood pressure, specifically during the night.

-the study raises a system of early detection of vascular damageeffective, simple, fast, non-invasive and economic, based on an analysis of urine and indicating the needing to step up treatment and prevention measures to avoid serious complications and consequences to patients, as well as costs to the system.

Barcelona, July of 2011. The team of hypertension and Vascular risk Mar Hospital Unit has done a study published in the prestigious journal Hypertension where it determines are the most useful parameters for assessing the presence of organic lesion and disease risk serious associated with high blood pressure. The findings of the study point to the numbers of nocturnal systolic blood pressure in combination with the measure of the excretion of albumin in urine may be markers of risk and prognosis of disease directly associated with high blood pressure.

Arterial hypertension is a major health problem around the world. It is estimated that there are more than 360 million of hypertensive patients. And the problems of the poor control of these figures of blood pressure, such as cardiovascular disease, the stroke, etc., can pose serious health problems. To treat asymptomatic disease and often go unnoticed, the perception of risk or illness by those who often suffer from is non-existent.

Good control of blood pressure figures is essential to avoid associated organic injury. An intermediate step is called subclinical organic lesion occurs prior to the emergence of organic lesion (infarction myocardium, advanced renal failure, etc.). It is essential to detect this first step towards effective measures that prevent, mitigate or minimize the effects of the established target organ injury. A good marker for this subclinical lesion is the microalbuminuria is more common in patients with hypertension resistant to treatment (20 per cent of the total of the hypertensive). There are groups of patients who, apparently, have a good control of blood pressure and that are not as resistant, but also presented microalbuminuria. In these cases, it is important to an ambulatory monitoring of blood pressure in 24 h, because it could be that day they were well controlled but not at night.

The complete study to detect the presence of subclinical lesion associated with hypertension includes many tests, explains the DRA. Resistant Anna Oliveras, clinical service Chief of Nephrology at Hospital del Mar, responsible for the hypertension and Vascular risk unit and one of the coordinators of the national registry of hypertensive “ analytical, EKG, ultrasound of the heart of the carotid arteries, knowing the speed of the pulse wavethe presence of renal failure, etc. and, in practice, make a very extensive study, is not possible everywhere ”. To detect so effective, simple, fast, non-invasive and economic this subclinical lesion facilitates the early detection of vascular damage, indicating the need to intensify the treatment and prevention measures to avoid serious complications and sequelae in patients, as well as costs to the system.

This study, conducted with a sample of more than 350 resistant hypertensive patients, has been made possible by the national registry of hypertension resistant of Spain, in the framework of the Spanish society of Arterial hypertension and determined by measuring the excretion of urine with a simple analysis of urine albumin (to be confirmed in)(at least 2 determinations), try non-invasive and economically, can improve the assessment of the risk of the patient. This, together with the determination of its nocturnal systolic pressure can facilitate a better assessment of the real cardiovascular risk associated with hypertension.

Resistant hypertensive are approximately 20% of the total, “ if we have in mind that by the year 2025 is estimated that there will be 60% more than hypertensive patients that currently and the figures will be close to 600 million patients affected around the world, the impact of the consequences of hypertension are of enormous significance ”, explains the DRA. Oliveras and concrete “ in Spain, 30% of the population has high pressure and the figure is almost double when we talk about patients 65 years or more. to provide reliable and economic tools to show us what patients are at risk of suffering serious organic disease of the hypertension andTherefore, what patients have a poor prognosis, it is essential in order to establish appropriate measures to mitigate and prevent the serious consequences of hypertension ”.

On the unity of hypertension

The Nephrology service of the Hospital of the sea has one of the units of hypertension for greater career and more consolidated in the Spain where are all the possible diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. One of the major areas of study is resistant hypertension. The DRA. Oliveras, responsible for the unit, is also coordinating with other professionals, the national registry of resistant hypertension.
