摘要：

PurposeThe implementation of hypertension guidelines into the everyday practice of general practitioners (GPs) have an outmost importance to provide optimal care for patients. The aim of our study was, on the one hand to gain insight about the relationship between hypertension societies and GP societies, and on the other hand, to get feedback about the use of single pill combinations (SPC) in each country, as an indicator of guideline implementation.Materials and MethodsThe European Society of Hypertension (ESH) GP Nucleus initiated a survey containing 17 questions about the existence and number of national hypertension and GP societies, the relationship between them and with pharmacists and nurse associations, the authors of national guidelines and the availability of SPCs. The survey was sent to the national hypertension society representatives of ESH. Additionally, data about the number of SPCs sold yearly was also checked using IQVIA database.ResultsResponses were collected from 25 European countries. In most of the countries there is only one hypertension society (23/25) and one GP society (18/25), most of which having a relationship with each other (22/25). Of the countries with national hypertension guidelines most of them are written by the national hypertension society (45%) followed by the GP society (27%) or by public administration (27%). Two thirds of the national hypertension societies (16/25) have relationship with nurse societies and half of them (12/25) with pharmacists. In 65% (15/23) of the guidelines dual SPC therapy is recommended for treatment initiation however, marked differences are present in the number of yearly sold SPCs in different countries.ConclusionsNational hypertension societies have remarkable impact on GPs for the management of hypertensive patients. However, improvement is needed in the collaboration with nurse and pharmacist societies and in some countries in the use of SPCs for hypertension therapy.
