Even if arterial hypertension (HT) is a process of multiorganic involvement, it is nevertheless in practice, one of the most powerful factors for the development of cardiovascular complications that increases very seriously, both cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Paradoxically, in Spain, a significant proportion of cardiologists have neglected for many years this disease, at least, at its initial phase, acting mainly, only when the usual and severe cardiovascular complications of HT were clinically well established. Currently, this attitude is changing in such a way, that in the near future, the cardiologist's commitment to HT, will be definitely engaged in both; basic research and clinical aspects. The Spanish Hypertension Working Group, has worked out in an inquiry sent to all Spanish cardiologists, in order to know their point of view in relation to the main aspects involving HT and cardiological practice. This paper collects the results of the answers given anonymously by the doctors.
