Hypertension Registry

Veradigm’s Hypertension Registry

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains one of the most prevalent — and urgent — health issues in the world.

Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a condition where the pressure in your blood vessels is persistently high. Nearly 48% of U.S. adults had hypertension during August 2021–August 2023 (47.7%), consistent with 48.1% reported during 2017–March 2020. The prevalence of hypertension increased with increasing age, with more than 70% of adults age 60 and older having hypertension.^1,2

Veradigm’s disease registries leverage both structured and unstructured data to provide precise insights into disease patterns, treatment outcomes, and patient care. These registries enable deep, targeted research that drives innovation and enhances real-world clinical insights.

Registry data provides information on diverse patient populations and rich clinical insights.
