Hypertension: a Companion to Braunwald's Heart Disease, 4th ed. by George L. Bakris; Matthew J. Sorrentino; Luke J. Laffin, 2024There have been many books published dealing with the topic of hypertension across a spectrum of diseases. However, it is rare to find one source that has an encyclopedic and timely spectrum of topics across the disease spectrum with a focus on hypertension. The book is divided into multiple parts including epidemiology, mechanisms of hypertension, the pathophysiology of disease, pharmacology of antihypertensive drugs, clinical outcome trials, and guideline discussions focusing on process rather than what was produced. Thus, there is something for everyone.
This fourth edition of Hypertension has expanded the topic variety from previous editions and presents novel topics of emerging areas of hypertension. Examples include the integration of updated hypertension guidelines from around the world, a chapter dealing with exercise and hypertension, and a chapter specifically focused on hypertension in women. There is also a new chapter about digital health and its use in managing blood pressure, which has been made more crucial given the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to these new chapters, other chapters have been consolidated and updated with the latest information sourced from basic science to clinical trials and guidelines so that information is applicable to the clinician.
Although there are now more than 125 different antihypertensive medications, blood pressure control rates around the world vary from as low as 15% in some Southeast Asian countries to over 40% in North America. Clearly, this does not relate to the price of medication but rather to individual patients, understanding, attitudes, and behaviors toward quelling a silent killer, hypertension. There are chapters in the book that address some of these issues, but the only real solution is a multipronged approach involving governmental policymakers, the pharmaceutical industry, payers, and medical professionals. We hope you will find the book a valuable resource to address a spectrum of questions surrounding the disease of hypertension.
