Abstract

Treatment-resistant hypertension (TRH) has a prevalence of approximately 10-20 %, and up to 5 % of patients with TRH experience a major cardiovascular or cerebrovascular event each year. Effective management of real TRH is important but can present a significant clinical challenge. Utilisation of treatment options that maximise treatment compliance is recommended, particularly combinations that have supporting data from clinical studies. Renal denervation can be considered for a subset of truly resistant patients.
