Features: The book covers the prevention of hypertension, community health education, screening, diagnosis, assessment, treatment, tiered management, special population management, and evaluation of community hypertension prevention and control. It is primarily intended for primary care physicians trained under the Ministry of Health's "National Standardized Community Management of Hypertension" project, but can also serve as a reference for community hypertension prevention and control. Due to uneven economic development across China and varying levels of community health facilities and physician expertise, each region should explore practical community hypertension prevention and control management models and effective measures based on local conditions. This manual serves as a starting point for such exploration. It aims to be concise, clear, and easy to understand, making it suitable for community physicians. However, due to the limited time and the authors' capabilities, there may be shortcomings in the book. We sincerely welcome criticism, suggestions, and feedback to help improve and refine this manual continuously.
