Arterial hypertension (AH) is a major problem within Public Health given its elevated prevalence and because it is the main cause of morbimortality in a global scale.

One in three adults in the world exhibits AH, and it is the main factor contributing to coronary disease, cerebrovascular accidents and heart failure.
