As the ESC is going to work on the new Guidelines for arterial
hypertension, this upgrade will be useful to focus on the
major problems that need to be faced, concerning the impact
on manifestations of cardiovascular disease and neglected
problems, such as sex-difference. The Symposium is open
to every physician, but is specifically oriented to increase
the awareness of arterial hypertension in the cardiology
community, according to the mission of the Council on
Hypertension of the ESC.
