This Medudy Master Class Series is a video tutorial for physicians on nephrology topics.
This two-part module examines arterial hypertension and is presented by Prof. Dr. Jan-Christoph Galle, Director of the Clinic for Nephrology and Dialysis at Lüdenscheid Hospital.
The first part of the course provides an overview of arterial hypertension from a nephrological perspective. In particular, it explains why correct blood pressure measurement is the basis of any meaningful diagnosis and treatment. In the second part, the diagnostic and therapeutic steps are explained using practical case studies.
Note: All "speakers" appearing in the Medudy videos are AI-based avatars used to improve the didactics of the videos. The people on whom the avatars are based have explicitly consented to their use. All content is based on high-quality scientific sources and is created and reviewed by the Medudy medical team.
The course was developed with the kind support of Boehringer Ingelheim, AstraZeneca, Sobi, Stadapharm, GSK, and Otsuka.
At the end of this training you will know:
- the importance of standardized blood pressure measurement
