De nieuwe CBO-richtlijn 'Hoge bloeddruk'; huisartsen en specialisten op één lijn

- Under the auspices of the Dutch Institute for Health Care Improvement (CBO) a final revised version of guidelines for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of hypertension was agreed upon. These guidelines constitute a delicate compromise between the views of general practitioners and hypertension specialists. These guidelines have been published separately from a future standard on hypertension from the Dutch College of General Practitioners but no major discrepancies between these two documents are anticipated.
