Comprehensive chapters address modifiable risk factors, such as lifestyle changes, especially sodium restriction, and appropriate combination pharmacotherapy. Emerging devices and evidence-based approaches that may also enhance effective blood pressure control and decrease the disparate cardiovascular disease risks, including MI, stroke, HF, and cardiorenal metabolic syndrome and diabetes are also discussed in detail. Written by a wide-range of experts in the field, Hypertension in High Risk African Americans: Current Concepts, Evidence-based Therapeutics and Future Considerations is a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers, health administrators and public health policy leaders to better understand the best practices and unique aspects of risk assessment and treatment of hypertension and co-morbid conditions in African Americans. 000724976 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 23, 2015). 000724976 650_0 $$aHypertension$$zUnited States. 000724976 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xMedical care. 000724976 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xHealth and hygiene. 000724976 7001_ $$aFerdinand, Keith C.,$$eeditor. 000724976 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781493920099 000724976 830_0 $$aClinical hypertension and vascular diseases. 000724976 852__ $$bebk 000724976 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-2010-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000724976 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:724976$$pGLOBAL_SET 000724976 980__ $$aEBOOK 000724976 980__ $$aBIB 000724976 982__ $$aEbook 000724976 983__ $$aOnline 000724976 994__ $$a92$$bISE
