Factors associated with treatment and control of hypertension in a healthy elderly population free of cardiovascular disease: A Cross-sectional Study

Factors associated with treatment and control of hypertension in a healthy elderly population free of cardiovascular disease: A Cross-sectional Study

BACKGROUND: Despite readily available treatments, control of blood pressure (BP) with population aging remains suboptimal.
