description Recently, there have been several reports related to the adequacy of blood pressure (BP) control in high-risk hypertensive patients. These aspects have been reviewed in the recently published reappraisal of the European Society of Hypertension guidelines, and this short review comments on and briefly extends the discussion of this situation. In summary, a low BP goal when cardiorenal disease is advanced can be risky. However, attaining normal BP levels at earlier stages in the cardiorenal continuum is probably totally adequate.
