Abstract
The paper discusses the issues of managing uncontrolled hypertension. It is noted that in the International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision (ICD-10), there is no diagnosis “hypertensive crisis”, which complicates the epidemiological estimates. In the new Russian Society of Cardiology guidelines, instead of using the term “uncomplicated hypertensive crisis”, the term “sudden pronounced individually relevant blood pressure (BP) increase” was proposed to describe pronounced BP increase without target organ damage. Since the term “uncomplicated hypertensive crisis” is not recommended for use, but this condition is often diagnosed in practice, it is advisable to replace this term with “sharp BP increase not accompanied by target organ damage” or “sudden pronounced individually relevant BP increase”. At the same time, there is no evidence that in patients with uncomplicated hypertensive crisis, a more rapid BP decrease is more effective over the standard antihypertensive therapy in relation to the risk of complications. The drug Physiotens® lowers BP smoothly and without sudden falls, while having favorable pharmacokinetics. The issues of revising the current approaches to antihypertensive therapy in patients with frequent BP increases, as well as the use of original drugs and generics are considered.
