Hypertension is a major health problem addressed by nurses in all settings. This article reviews long-term hypertension outcomes and asserts the need to use intermediate outcomes focusing on prevention and early detection to effect change in the prevalence of hypertension and its complications. The Nursing Classification Outcome of Risk Control is presented as a framework to evaluate the state of the science and to develop a research agenda related to hypertension "Risk Control."
