ABSTRACT
Arterial hypertension together with dyslipidemia, diabetes and smoking are the most severe risk factors for cardiovascular (CV) disease. The Czech Republic is among the countries with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. To reduce cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in our patients, a comprehensive approach to treatment and, in most cases, aggressive control of all risk factors is needed. This article summarizes current diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for arterial hypertension and dyslipidaemia, as well as the concept of vascular age, which can help us to communicate CV risk with patients.
