Publisher's Synopsis
This is the third issue of the very popular single-volume overview of current literature in hypertension. It includes papers published in the past eighteen months that have potentially changed practice, or that predict probable future developments. Previous issues have been called "incredibly useful" and "a superb reference bank" by the British Journal of Anaesthesia. The Year in Hypertension 2002 provides readers with an up-to-the-minute summary of recent research findings and their implications for clinical management. The four sections cover: basic science, hypertension and co-existing conditions, therapy, and current practical issues.
