Article Synopsis
- Hospitalized patients often have higher blood pressure (BP) than recommended, and there is no consistent standard for managing elevated BP during hospitalization.
- A systematic review identified 14 clinical practice guidelines on BP management, of which 11 were deemed high-quality, yet many lacked clear guidelines for inpatient BP targets or managing moderately elevated BP without symptoms.
- Hypertensive emergencies typically require immediate intravenous antihypertensives, while the management of hypertensive urgencies is inconsistent and mostly focused on emergency department protocols.*

The method can engage stakeholders and identify barriers more efficiently than traditional brainstorming focus groups.
