[Progress in therapeutic principles and the characteristics of strategies for treatment of hypertension and its changes in China].
To briefly introduce the updated principles for treatment of hypertension by reviewing foreign literatures in point of this aspect and its progress. The strategies of hypertension treatment in our country experienced the development from "non-principles (NP)", "partial principles (PP)" to "full principles (FP)", and already realized five conversions, i.e. the conversion from simply depress the blood pressure to multi-drugs, multi-targets and multi-pathways comprehensive therapy, and put stress on both prevention and treatment. The authors emphasized that NP should be rejected completely, and population proportion of PP, especially FP used should be elevated in hypertension treatment in the future.
