Hypertension control in the united states 2009 to 2018: factors underlying falling control rates during 2015 to 2018 across age- and race-ethnicity groups
Hypertension Jun 19, 2021
Egan BM, Li J, Sutherland SE, et al. - This study attempted to explore explanatory factors for declining hypertension control and evaluated if specific age (18–39, 40–59, ≥ 60 years) or race-ethnicity groups (Non-Hispanic White, NH [B]lack, Hispanic) were disproportionately impacted. Researchers examined individuals with hypertension in National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys during the plateau (2009–2014) and decline (2015–2018) in hypertension control. The results of this study demonstrate that improving hypertension control and decreasing disparities need greater and more equitable access to high quality health care and healthier lifestyles.
