Abstract

Background:- As per the WHO statistics (2019) an estimated 1.13 billion people worldwide have hypertension, most (two-thirds) living in low and middle income countries. In 2015, 1 in 4 men and 1 in 5 women had hypertension. Fewer than 1 in 5 people with hypertension have the problem under control. Hypertension is a major cause of premature death worldwide. One of the global targets for non-communicable diseases is to reduce the prevalence of hypertension by 25% by 2025.
