Arterial hypertension (AH) is one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of hypertension among the adult population of the planet is 30–45%, in Russia – 40–47%. In 2025, the number is expected to grow from AH to 1,5 billion people.
Hypertensive crises are a frequent complication of hypertension and become the reason for seeking emergency, outpatient and inpatient medical care. In recent years, the leading expert cardiological communities have revised the concept of «hypertensive crisis» and, as a consequence, the tactics of patient management. This article provides an overview of modern ideas about the optimal therapeutic tactics for diagnosing and treating patients with hypertensive crisis.
