“…Increasing awareness and treatment adherence to hypertension, the leading risk factor for stroke, became the main goal in several countries in Asia 50,98,115,116 . Generally, Yap et al described that treatment adherence in elderly depends on patient factors, medication factors, health care provider factors, and health care system factors 117 .…”

“…The “perfect 24‐hour BP control” strategy taking Asian characteristics into account is essential for achievement of the “zero” cardiovascular event goal . Considerable work has already been done on the journey to achieving this goal . Practically, a staged approach to the 24‐hour management of hypertension should be considered, first targeting morning hypertension, then nocturnal hypertension, followed by daytime hypertension .…”

The impact of hypertension-related cardiovascular disease and target organ damage, and therefore the benefits of blood pressure (BP) control, is greater in Asian than in Western countries. Asia-specific features of hypertension and its effective management are important and active areas of research. The Hypertension Cardiovascular Outcome Prevention and Evidence in Asia (HOPE Asia) Network was formed in 2016and is now a member of the World Hypertension League. The main goal of the HOPE Asia Network is to improve the management of hypertension and organ protection toward achieving "zero" cardiovascular events in Asia. Considerable work has already been done on the journey to achieving this goal. We have shown that BP control status in Asia differs between countries, and even between regions within the same country. Several expert panel consensus recommendations and clinical guidance papers are available to support the use of home and ambulatory BP monitoring in the region. In addition, the AsiaBP@Home study prospectively investigated home BP control status across 15 specialist centers using the same validated device and measurement schedule. We have also proposed the concept of systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome (SHATS), a vicious cycle of BP variability and vascular disease on cardiovascular events and organ damage, and suggested a SHATS score for risk stratification for clinical practice. This special issue of the journal collates Asia-specific resources and data, contributing to advances in hypertension management and cardiovascular disease prevention in the region.

“…Subanalysis of Singapore population revealed a different pattern of choice of drugs for hypertension from prior to 2010. 33 The analysis showed the choice of anti-hypertensives used in decreasing order: CCB (74%), ARB (64%), beta-blockers (29%), and diuretics (22%).…”

“…In recent years, the Asia BP@Home study (2017‐2018) was a multinational Asian specialty study evaluating home and clinic blood pressure control. Subanalysis of Singapore population revealed a different pattern of choice of drugs for hypertension from prior to 2010 33 . The analysis showed the choice of anti‐hypertensives used in decreasing order: CCB (74%), ARB (64%), beta‐blockers (29%), and diuretics (22%).…”
