ABSTRACT
Resistant hypertension(RH) is a type of hypertension that causes progression of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Clear diagnosis and effective treatment are essential. The article provides a detailed summary of the definition, etiology, diagnosis and treatment of RH. The treatment of RH should emphasize individualization, and it is necessary to carefully discern the cause and distinguish from secondary hypertension. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and home blood pressure measurement are important diagnostic tools. A combination of multiple drugs(including diuretics) that are reasonable, optimal, and of tolerable doses is the key to controlling blood pressure.
