Don't let "the silent killer" end your life -- or affect your quality of life

Get the latest information on how you can lower your high blood pressure to prevent stroke



If you have hypertension (high blood pressure), you have one of the most prevalent and serious disorders in the United States. About 20 percent of people with hypertension don’t even know they have it. That’s because hypertension is a “silent disease” and usually gives few or no warning signs before it erupts with major complications such as a stroke.

Avoiding hypertension or detecting it early can dramatically reduce your risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney disease. Fortunately, in most cases, the condition can be easily detected and is usually controlled with a combination of diet, exercise, and medication.

The 2012 Johns Hopkins Hypertension and Stroke White Paper provides you with valuable insights on managing hypertension and preventing stroke.

The 2012 Johns Hopkins Hypertension and Stroke White Paper

Drawing on the latest clinical studies and research findings, the experts at Johns Hopkins explain:

    .
  • How to manage your high blood pressure
  • How to eliminate—or at least minimize—many of the risk factors for a stroke.
  • How hospitalized stroke patients are best treated.
  • What to expect after a stroke. What’s involved on the road to recovery?

This brand new White Paper has just been released for 2012 and is designed to help you ensure the best outcome. Use what you learn to help you:

  • Recognize and respond to stroke symptoms and changes in your blood pressure as they occur.
  • Communicate effectively with your doctor, ask informed questions and understand the answers.
  • Make the right decisions, based on an understanding of the newest drugs, the latest treatments, the most promising research.
