Hypertension Month
Hypertension is the leading preventable cause of death and disability around the world, and can lead to heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and dementia. Over 7.2 million Canadians have hypertension, and 7.5 million more have high blood pressure that will lead to hypertension without preventative action.
Hypertension Canada promotes Hypertension Month and World Hypertension Day (October 17) in partnership with the World Hypertension League and the International Society of Hypertension.
