The Primary Care Guideline Committee was selected by the Hypertension Canada Guideline Executive Committee. The guideline committee consisted of family medicine physicians (K.A.T., J.H., and G.C.), pharmacists (R.T.T. and S.C.G.), a nurse practitioner (J.B.), hypertension specialists (R.G. [ co-chair], G.L.H. [co-chair], R.T.T., A.A.L., N.R.C.C., and E.L.S.), and a methodologist (N.S.) with expertise in guideline development and GRADE methodology. Additionally, a working group of 4 patient-partners with lived experience with hypertension (listed in Acknowledgements) was formed, which provided feedback throughout the guideline development process and led the creation of the associated patient support tool.
