Personalized hypertension management in practice

Abstract

The revolution occurring in genomic and personalized medicine is likely to have a significant impact on the management of hypertension. However, from the perspective of translating new knowledge into clinical practice, progress has been slow. This review article summarizes recent advances in hypertension-related diagnostics while also offering new perspective on hypertension management for the future. Such new perspectives will likely require a paradigm shift toward more integrated and holistic approaches for better prevention and treatment of hypertension in both individuals and the population as a whole.
