Ensayo Clínico ESPRIT - El Resumen Visual

El Resumen Visual

El control de la hipertensión es un pilar fundamental en la prevención de enfermedades cardiovasculares en pacientes de alto riesgo. El ensayo clínico ESPRIT resulta clave para determinar si un control más intensivo de la presión arterial sistólica (menos de 120 mm Hg) ofrece mejores resultados en la reducción de eventos cardiovasculares mayores, en comparación con el control estándar (menos de 140 mm Hg).

En este resumen visual, creado por Francisco Santamaria, analizaremos en detalle los hallazgos del estudio ESPRIT y sus implicaciones para el manejo de la hipertensión en pacientes con alto riesgo cardiovascular.
