Primary

Measure	Time frame
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure is measured according to clinical practice during cabinet visit	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Isolated systolic hypertension is calculated based on blood pressure measurement according to clinical practice during cabinet visit 2. Judged blood pressure control is written down in CRF by treating general practitioner during cabinet visit 3. Blood pressure control according to ESH/ESC guidelines is evaluated in comparison with blood pressure measurement according to clinical practice during cabinet visit 4. Number of antihypertensive drugs is written down in CRF by treating general practitioner during cabinet visit 5.
