The article considers the key points of the new 2018 guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology and European Society of Hypertension on management and treatment of patients with arterial hypertension (AH). The guidelines widen the possibilities for ambulatory monitoring of blood pressure (BP) and at-home measurement of BP in diagnosis of AH, especially for detection of hidden (“masked”) hypertension and white-coat hypertension. New target ranges for BP depending on age and concomitant pathology are established. For most patients, BP <140 mm Hg (primary target) is accepted, for patients under 65 years if therapy is well-tolerated BP <130 mm Hg should be achieved. Selection of treatment for elderly patients shouldn’t be based on chronological age but on biological age taking into account evaluation of senile asthenia, self-maintenance and therapy tolerability. For starting selection of drugs for AH, in most patients two-component therapy (one pill drug) is preferable. The latest guidelines contain simplified algorithms for management of patients with AH. It is shown that in most patients, a preference should be made for combinations of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blocker (inhibitors of angiotensin-converting enzyme or angiotensin II receptor blockers) with a slow calcium channels blocker and/or thiazide/thiazide-like diuretic. Beta-blockers should be prescribed only for specific clinical cases. Special emphasis is made on evaluation of patient’s treatment adherence as the main reason for insufficient BP control, as well as on increased role of nurses and pharmacists in education, monitoring, and support of patients with AH being an important part of general strategy of BP control.

The article considers approaches to the selection of optimal antihypertensive therapy in order to achieve the target blood pressure in patients with hypertension in accordance with the latest Recommendations on hypertension of the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and the European Society of Cardiology; ESC), as well as the circadian rhythm of blood pressure. Fixed combinations of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers, which include angiotensin II receptor blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, with calcium antagonists should be preferred. Taking such a fixed combination at night can prevent the morning rise in blood pressure, when patients with hypertension usually have cardiovascular accidents.

Bull's Eye

Despite the significant mortality and mobidity benefits being obtained with the targeted therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), mid- to long-term survival of patients with this disease has remained unsatisfactory. For earlier and reliable risk stratification in PAH and tailoring the dynamic management strategies, various risk assessment models have been developed. Currently available risk reduction strategy recommended by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC)/European Respiratory Society (ERS) 2015 Pulmonary Hypertension Guidelines has been utilized in three recent registries. In this review, we evaluated the risk prediction models and management algorithms in this setting and propose an alternative parametric display, a bull’s eye, dart table scheme for ESC/ERS goal-orientated risk reduction strategy in patients with PAH.

Most patients with stable angina can be managed with lifestyle changes, especially smoking cessation and regular exercise, along with taking antianginal drugs. Randomised controlled trials show that antianginal drugs are equally effective and none of them reduced mortality or the risk of MI, yet guidelines prefer the use of beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers as a first-line treatment. The European Society of Cardiology guidelines for the management of stable coronary artery disease provide classes of recommendation with levels of evidence that are well defined. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines for the management of stable angina provide guidelines based on cost and effectiveness using the terms first-line and second-line therapy. Both guidelines recommend using low-dose aspirin and statins as disease-modifying agents. The aim of this article is to critically appraise the guidelines’ pharmacological recommendations for managing patients with stable angina.

This article reviews new positions of these documents, compares approaches to current issues of managing of the patients with arterial hypertension, pro and contra with previous versions of similar documents. It is necessary to update the National guidelines for management of patients with arterial hypertension, which should include the dignity of both European and American approaches.

In this review we present analysis the European recommendations on hypertension – what’s new and what has changed in the tactics of managing patients with arterial hypertension (AH). We compared recommendations on hypertension of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the European Society of hypertension (ESH) 2018 with European recommendations of previous years. In the updated version of guidelines, it is still recommended to determine AH as blood pressure (BP) ≥140 and / or ≥90 mm Hg; to subdivide BP levels into optimal, normal, and high normal, to classify severity of AH as 3 degrees, and to distinguish separately its isolated systolic form. Values for out-of-office BP remained unchanged, but recommendations emerged concerning wider use of ambulatory BP monitoring and self-measurement of BP. For initial therapy, it was recommended to use two drugs combinations preferably as single pill combinations. An increase of the role of nurses and pharmacists in teaching, supporting patients and controlling hypertension has been noted. This can improve the achievement of target BP and, as a result, reduce the cardiovascular risk. New European recommendations highlight the modern aspects of classification and diagnosis of AH, main stages of screening, and algorithm of drug treatment of AH.

Aim. To analyze the effect of introducing new treatment goals in hypertension stated in the 2018 European Society of Cardiology and European Society of Hypertension Guidelines on prevalence and treatment efficacy of arterial hypertension (AH) in a representative sample of patients in the European part of the Russian Federation. Materials and methods. A representative sample of population in the European part of Russia was evaluated in 1998, 2002, 2007, and 2017. The structure of patients with AH was compared in these samples according to the 2013 and 2018 European Guidelines. Results. Introduction of new guidelines for the treatment of AH in 2018 resulted in increasing the prevalence of hypertension from 35.5% to 36.9% in 1998, from 39.1% to 39.9% in 2002, from 451.0% to 41.3% in 2007, and from 43.3% to 43.6% in 2017. Proportion of effectively managed patients decreased from 4.7% to 3.5% in 1998, from 7.5% to 6.2% in 2002, from 17.0 to 14.7% in 2007, and from 30.8% to 26.4%. Proportion of patients who required initiation of antihypertensive therapy increased from 59.6% to 61.1% in 1998, from 47.9% to 49.1% in 2002, from 27.9% to 28.2% in 2007, and from 17.5% to 18.2% in 2017. Conclusion. The new requirements to diagnostic and treatment of AH provided by the 2018 European Society of Cardiology Guidelines insignificantly influenced prevalence and treatment efficacy of AH. At the same time, the new guidelines appeared rather difficult for application due to different values of blood pressure used for diagnostics and treatment goals.
