Apparent and true resistant hypertension: definition, prevalence and outcomes

EditorialPor: E Judd y D A Calhoun.  Journal of Human Hypertension 16 January 2014; doi: 10.1038/jhh.

Resistant hypertension, defined as blood pressure (BP) remaining above goal despite the use of greater than or equal to3 antihypertensive medications at maximally tolerated doses (one ideally being a diuretic) or BP that requires greater than or equal to4 agents to achieve control, has received more attention with increased efforts to improve BP control rates and the emergence of device-based therapies for hypertension. This classically defined resistant group consists of patients with true resistant hypertension, controlled resistant hypertension and pseudo-resistant hypertension.
