Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

Hypertensive patients - No intervention. Patients will be sumbitted to standard tests required for hypertension management, including ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, and pharmacologically treated according to recommendations of international guidelines. The registry will include data from subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria and whose data are contained in existing databases collected by the participating centers and who are regularly followed-up at the center. New subjects can be enrolled for this project, but they must be submitted to ambualtory blood pressure monitoring because it is required for evaluating their hypertension status, according to current recommendations.


Treatment: Devices: Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring with arterial stiffness evaluation at 6-12 month intervals.
