New Market Research Report: GlobalHypertensionDrugs Market 2016-2020

Hypertension, or high blood pressure (BP), develops when there is too much pressure against the inner walls of blood vessels. Depending on the pressure exerted, hypertension can be classified as:

* PAH
* Systemic hypertension (commonly referred to as hypertension)

PAH, high BP in the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the lungs, occurs when blood vessels narrow, making blood flow difficult. This creates pressure on the heart's right ventricle, which increases in size and becomes weaker due to the excess load, leading to heart failure. The normal pulmonary arterial pressure at rest is 14 mmHg and increases from 25 mmHg to 30 mmHg.
Systemic hypertension occurs when blood vessels that supply oxygenated blood to the body become narrower, creating pressure on the right side of the heart.
