The present guidelines were prepared by the Guidelines Sub-Committee of the WHO/ISH (International Society of Hypertension) Mild Hypertension Liaison Committee. They represent the third revision of the WHO/ISH guidelines and were finalized after discussions at the Sixth WHO/ISH Meeting on Mild Hypertension in Chantilly, France, on 28-31 March 1993. The new guidelines discuss the cardiovascular risk in patients with hypertension, the definition and classification of mild hypertension, drug treatment (including the elderly) and non-drug measures, cost-effectiveness, and further research.
