| Summary: | Hypertension (HPT) is the most common co-morbidity
among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients which
causes increased risk of morbidity and mortality from
stroke, heart failure and heart attack¹.
Thus, keeping blood pressure within targeted control
level is crucial to reduce the cardiovascular
complications in T2DM patients.
The HPT control status of DM patients should be
assessed and analyzed to improve treatment outcomes.
