Editorial Comment
Abstract
It gives me great pleasure to introduce this supplement edition of South African Family Practice. This issue will be devoted to the presentations from the South African Hypertension Society Congress refresher day. The theme of this day will primarily be directed at “What the hypertension practitioner needs to know.” In other words, the core knowledge required by practitioners to treat hypertension and associated cardiovascular and renal disease, mainly at the primary care level. This is essential reading for all hypertension practitioners.
