Abstract Current antihypertensive treatment strategy tends to approach all patients similarly, with decision to treat, the goal of treatment, and medication use based largely on blood pressure measurement. Clearly, it would make far more sense if a management strategy could be developed that was not solely dependent on measurement of blood pressure, but rather reflected a clearer understanding of individual likelihood of adverse outcome, the nature of blood pressure control, and the importance of associated clinical and biological characteristics. New tools make it possible to accurately assess the status of the heart, kidney, and blood vessels, both as a guide to the need for therapy and as a measure of treatment progress when the treatment is used. New understanding of the vasoconstrictor and volume contributions to blood pressure control coupled with a rich armamentarium of therapeutic agents make it possible to tailor therapy more appropriately. Finally, growing awareness of the contribution of concomitant risk factors has made it clear that overall success depends on attention to the whole patient.
