World Hypertension Day: Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment

Worldwide, 46% of adults with hypertension are unaware of their condition¹. This fact highlights the importance of early diagnosis, especially since hypertension is a condition with few or no warning signs.As the world's second largest pharmaceutical group in the field of hypertension², we have been committed to working alongside patients and healthcare professionals. Our # BecauseISaySo campaign and SNAPSHOT's real-world evidence research are two examples of how we put this commitment into practice.

Snapshot: Epidemiological studies in hypertensive patients

Hypertensive patients generally present a complex picture with multiple risk factors and comorbidities. It should be noted that 50% of patients do not adhere properly to treatment.³more than half of hypertensive patients do not receive treatment.^Fouronly 21% of adults have controlled high blood pressure¹. This huge unmet medical need in hypertension sparked the idea for the SNAPSHOT study.

The aim of SNAPSHOT is to improve the current understanding of how hypertensive patients, with and without dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes, are managed in real-world settings.

Many countries around the world are participating in SNAPSHOT, but it's just the beginning. Following Europe, Central America and the Middle East, the study is now starting in Africa and will soon begin in Asia.

SNAPSHOT provided first insight into how hypertensive patients are currently managed^Five:

1. Physicians' underestimation of patients' cardiovascular risk.
2. Overestimation of risk factors and lack of control.
3. underuse Single pill combination (SPC) To manage risk factors.
