Abstract
In recent years, there has been a tendency to “tighten” the criteria for the diagnosis of hypertension. So, experts from the unifying national committee (ONC) for the identification, assessment and treatment of high blood pressure (USA, 1993) recommended diagnosing hypertension with a high blood pressure of more than 140/90 mm Hg. and highlight 4 stages. In 1999, recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Society of Hypertension (SAG) for the treatment of hypertension were published, which provide a new classification of hypertension. According to this classification, it is necessary to determine the degree of arterial hypertension, as well as stratify the risk of developing cardiovascular complications to assess the prognosis.
