Erratum

A typographical error was published in the article ‘2007 ESH-ESC Practice Guidelines for the Management of Arterial Hypertension’ which appeared on pp. 1751–1774 of Journal of Hypertension, Volume 25, Issue 9.

In , in the three yellow cases for Grade 1HT and 1-2 risk factors, and Grade 2HT with No other risk factors and 1-2 risk factors, the captions say ‘Lifestyle changes for several months then drug treatment if BP uncontrolled’, this should have been published as ‘Lifestyle changes for several weeks then drug treatment if BP uncontrolled’.

The corrected Figure appears below, and the online version has been corrected.
