The 27th Congress of the European Society of Hypertension featured wide international participation and high quality interventions and debates. Among the main topics discussed: the need for better patient compliance and the correct use of drugs, the assessment of the limit for pressure reduction thanks to increasingly effective drugs. Much attention was devoted to the use of drug combinations in a single pill (and the possible positive effects on adherence to therapy) as well as to the problem of the early organ damage detection, a precious element in the stratification of Cardiovascular Risk and the personalization of therapy.
