May support multifactorial intervention in high-risk hypertension; hypothesis-generating and requires larger confirmatory trials.

Björn Fagerberg (1998) conducted an RCT in Hypertension with additional cardiovascular risk factors (n=508). Multifactorial risk factor intervention program vs. Usual care was evaluated on Mortality (95% CI 0.42-0.92, p=0.016). A multifactorial risk factor intervention program significantly reduced mortality compared to usual care in treated hypertensive men with additional risk factors (16.2% vs 25.1%; P=0.016).
