Around the world, hypertension is a key factor in premature death. It raises the risk of kidney, heart, and neurological diseases. According to the first comprehensive global research of trends in hypertension prevalence, identification, treatment, and control, coordinated by Imperial College London and WHO, the number of persons aged 30-79 who have hypertension has risen from 650 million to 1.28 billion in the past thirty years.
The Certificate in Hypertension Management is an online course that aims to provide learners with the specialized knowledge tailored to manage hypertension cases. It provides comprehensive coverage from the pathophysiology of hypertension to diagnosis and management. The investigations and management of essential hypertension, secondary hypertension, resistant hypertension, and hypertensive crises have been incorporated so as to facilitate managing all forms of hypertension. Management of hypertension in special populations, pregnant women, and co-morbidities is also essentially covered. The objective of this course is to enable general practitioners to provide high-quality evidence-based treatment with improved outcomes in hypertension.
