[Treatment of patients with arterial hypertension in clinical practice in 2010-2020 (according to the national register of hypertension)].

Aim: To analyze therapy in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) in 20102020.

Materials And Methods: Data of hypertensive patients observed in primary health care, entered into the base of hypertension registry for 20102020 years in the whole group (n=44 653) and in a separate subgroup of hypertensive patients in the absence of: ischemic heart disease, a history of myocardial infarction, chronic heart failure (n=20 569).

Results: About 80% of hypertensive patients are patients of high and very high risks (from 2010 to 2020, the proportion of very high cardiovascular risk (CVR) increased from 18.1 to 57.3%). The number of hypertensive patients with a history of myocardial infarction increased in 5 times, in 3 times with ischemic heart disease and with chronic heart failure. The number of prescribed drugs increased: mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (in 5.8 times), loop diuretics (in 7.2) angiotensin receptor blockers (in 3 times), b-adrenoblockers, calcium channel blockers of the dihydropyridine series, thiazide-like diuretics in 2 times. Patients at high and very high risk are more likely reached target blood pressure values. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors were prescribed in more than 70% of patients with hypertension and the absence of coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure, history of myocardial infarction; the prescription of b-adrenoblockers, angiotension receptor blockers, thiazide-like and loop diuretics increased.

Conclusion: The proportion of more severe and comorbid patients has increased in observed in primary health care patients with AH over a 10-year period (20102020). This was probably the main factor of increasing antihypertensive therapy and prescribing drugs with additional indications and improving the achievement of target blood pressure in patients with high and very high cardiovascular risk.
