Hypertension : an insight
Journal Title: Perspectives In Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
The history of hypertension goes back a long way. In ancient Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine, the quality of an individual’s pulse felt by gentle palpation was a window into the condition of the cardiovascular system. What was called “hard pulse” possibly would qualify for the modern term of hypertension.
