Hypertensive Individuals

Meaning

Hypertensive Individuals are patients who have been clinically diagnosed with hypertension, a chronic and progressive medical condition characterized by a persistent and pathologically elevated arterial blood pressure. This diagnosis is typically made when systolic pressure is consistently 130 mmHg or higher, or diastolic pressure is 80 mmHg or higher, significantly increasing the risk for cardiovascular events and end-organ damage. Recognizing and managing this condition is critical for long-term metabolic and vascular health.
