Global Hypertension Experts Launch First-of-its-Kind Online Resource to Help Healthcare Professionals Address Most Challenging Form of Hypertension

Resource Endorsed by the American Society of Hypertension and the European Society of Hypertension

ERLANGEN, Germany and BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ –The Power Over Pressure steering committee today announced the launch of the world’s first online resource created to help healthcare professionals improve diagnosis and develop solutions for treatment-resistant hypertension, an urgent and growing public health issue that affects 120 million people worldwide.[1],[2] Developed by global hypertension experts and endorsed by the American Society of Hypertension and the European Society of Hypertension, this new, free resource is available at PowerOverPressure.com.

“Despite focused efforts and the introduction of multiple new therapies, the percentage of hypertension patients resistant to treatment has increased by 62 percent in the last 20 years – making it critical for physicians across all disciplines who care for these patients to work together to improve patient outcomes,” said Suzanne Oparil, M.D., professor of medicine, physiology and biophysics, director of the vascular biology and hypertension program in the division of cardiovascular disease at the University of Alabama at Birmingham in the United States and co-chair of the Power Over Pressure Steering Committee. “PowerOverPressure.com was designed to be the one-stop comprehensive digital location for everything related to treatment-resistant hypertension, including educational guides, slide sets, and other valuable tools to help physicians more quickly identify people with treatment-resistant hypertension and optimize their care plans through current and emerging treatment approaches.”

Patients with treatment-resistant hypertension, defined as persistently high blood pressure despite treatment with three or more antihypertensive medications, have a three-fold increase in risk of cardiovascular events compared to individuals with controlled high blood pressure.[3] It is often caused by multiple factors including lifestyle and underlying conditions, making its management complex and potentially requiring the involvement of hypertension specialists.[4] Diagnosing treatment-resistant hypertension is a process of elimination, and several factors must be considered before a patient with presumed treatment-resistant hypertension can be classified as truly treatment-resistant.

At PowerOverPressure.com healthcare professionals have access to a systematic, step-wise approach to evaluate, diagnose, and manage treatment-resistant hypertension. This approach can be used to help confirm the diagnosis of treatment-resistant hypertension, as well as identify areas for hypertension treatment optimization. The approach focuses on:

Confirming the accuracy of blood pressure measurement
Optimizing pharmacotherapy and adherence
Addressing lifestyle barriers to blood pressure control
Considering referral to a specialist
Because the management of treatment-resistant hypertension patients often requires a multi-disciplinary approach, the online resource was designed to help establish community support among physicians and patients through downloadable tools and materials including:

A primer that highlights key educational topics in treatment-resistant hypertension, such as the magnitude of the problem, diagnosis, pathophysiology, and current and emerging management approaches
Educational resources to foster peer-to-peer best practice sharing
Treatment-resistant hypertension has a significant impact on patients emotionally and has a profound impact on their everyday lives. A recent global survey of more than 4,500 patients with uncontrolled hypertension, conducted through the Power Over Pressure program, found an alarming 65 percent of people with treatment-resistant hypertension reported that high blood pressure remains their most serious health concern. Eighty percent of patients with treatment-resistant hypertension reported that their high blood pressure has had a negative impact on their overall peace of mind and six out of ten patients (60 percent) admitted to being very worried about having a stroke as a result of their high blood pressure.

“While some patients who suffer from presumed treatment-resistant hypertension might achieve blood pressure control with an antihypertensive drug regimen, some particularly difficult-to-treat cases may remain uncontrolled despite maximal drug therapy,” said Roland Schmieder, M.D., professor of internal medicine, nephrology and hypertension and head of the clinical research center hypertension and vascular medicine at the department of nephrology and hypertension of the University Hospital Erlangen in Germany, and co-chair of the Power Over Pressure Steering Committee. “It can be an extremely frustrating and expensive condition to manage for both physicians and patients. It is our goal that PowerOverPressure.com becomes the premier resource for supporting best practices to improve diagnosis accuracy and actively treat this growing, high-risk patient population.”

ABOUT POWER OVER PRESSURE

Developed by a team of global experts in hypertension, Power Over Pressure is a global campaign to advance the diagnosis and management of treatment-resistant hypertension, a debilitating and potentially life-threatening disease affecting nearly 120 million people worldwide.[1],[2] Power Over Pressure is endorsed by the American Society of Hypertension and the European Society of Hypertension.

ATC Global Unveils 2013 Conference Agenda

LONDON, Aug. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ — ATC Global revealed today an agenda for its 2013 three day conference, taking place on 12-14 March in Amsterdam, that will spark honest debate about the current progress with global ATM interoperability. A panel assembled to represent stakeholders from every global region will answer the difficult questions, discuss the current strategies in place and steer debate towards a more robust framework for accountability that will instil confidence in those funding this leap forward in technology and service.

Paula Milburn, ATC Global Director, said: “ATC Global 2013 will be a unique opportunity for the full breadth of the ATM community to discuss the true implications of ICAO’s November 2012 Air Navigation Conference within a well-established, independent and inclusive forum. This agenda has been designed in close consultation with industry experts to reflect the growing concerns of regulators, ANSP’s, suppliers, airports and aircraft operators”.

The first day will address the progress being made with the ANC 2012 Block Upgrades. Special focus will be given to Latin America and other growth regions to highlight the effects that NextGen, the implementation of the Single European Sky and ASBUs will have on regional operations and global harmonisation.

The second day will evaluate the reality of progress made by ANSPs so far. Through an interactive visual ‘Scorecard’ the panel will review and measure their effectiveness in delivering real world progress, as well as discuss the subject of accountability. This conference will shine a cold light on how the governance and structure of individual ANSPs might be affecting the way they implement regulatory requirements.

The final day will bring the discussion back to the timetable of implementation and give conference participants the opportunity to evaluate the uptake of new technology; examining the differing requirements between all global regions and the varying obstacles to implementation. This is an opportunity to set out a realistic timetable for the delivery of credible benefits to the air transport system.

Due to enthusiastic feedback from attendees of the 2012 event, the ATC Global 2013 conference has developed from two days into three days. This directly addresses the wishes of our ATM stakeholders to have greater participation in panel sessions, to be able to see a larger variety of presenters and to have the time to draw effective conclusions.

The conference agenda can now be viewed in full on the website at http://www.atcglobalhub.com/conferenceagenda. A published list of speakers will follow shortly.

MACAO, China, Aug. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ — Sands China Ltd. (HKSE: 1928), a majority-held subsidiary of global integrated resort developer Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE: LVS), has announced September 20, 2012 as the opening day for the second phase of its Sands(R) Cotai Central integrated resort.

(Photo: http://www.prnasia.com/sa/2012/08/21/20120821214215561594.html )

Foremost among the new facilities is the opening of the first of two hotel towers from Sheraton Macao Hotel, Cotai Central, with a second tower opening in early 2013. The hotel is the world’s largest Sheraton at 3,896 guestrooms, as well as the largest hotel in Macao. The hotel’s Kashgar grand ballroom will offer nearly 53,000 square feet (4,900 square metres) of pillarless meeting and event space. And Shoppes Cotai Central adds a second level of duty-free shops, plus additional restaurants and an international food court.

The opening is the most recent benchmark in Sands China’s push to firmly establish Macao as one of Asia’s leading business and leisure destinations. The opening will further expand the diversity of choices on the Cotai Strip(R) with additional accommodation, dining, entertainment, retail, gaming and meeting and convention offerings. The company’s Macao investment toward that goal is in excess of US$8 billion to date, and will soon bring Sands China’s combined Cotai Strip offerings to over 9,000 rooms across five international hotels, 1.3 million square feet (120,000 square metres) of meeting and exhibition space, over 600 luxury duty-free shops and more than 57 international restaurants, bars and lounges.

“The opening of the Sheraton Macao Hotel at Sands Cotai Central represents another milestone in my vision for the Cotai Strip,” says Las Vegas Sands and Sands China Ltd. Chairman Sheldon Adelson. “I’m very happy to see Sheraton join our growing family of integrated resorts on the Cotai Strip. Sands China remains committed to establishing Macao as a world centre of tourism and leisure, and Asia’s number one business and leisure destination. The addition of Sheraton Macao Hotel, Cotai Central and its impressive array of luxury accommodation is an important development towards reaching that goal.”

Sands China Ltd. President and Chief Executive Officer Edward Tracy says, “Our team members worked incredibly hard to launch Sands Cotai Central back in April; they’ve worked equally hard to introduce the expanded facilities of Sands Cotai Central to Macao this September. All of us are excited to unveil this latest development and we are already looking forward to serving our visitors with the opening of our next phase in early 2013.”

The opening ceremony will take place on September 20, with exciting entertainment highlights to be announced. More information on Sands Cotai Central is available at www.sandscotaicentral.com.

The continued stability of the Pacific region and partnership outreach efforts in Theater Security Cooperation will be thoughtfully analyzed by presenters from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) with US Pacific partners, Public Diplomacy, Strategic Communications, and Information Operations. On Day one of the conference, speaking on behalf of OSD, is Mr. Austin Branch, Senior Advisor for Strategy & Plans for Information Operations & Strategic Studies. The keynote by, Lt Gen Daniel Leaf, USAF (Ret), identifies challenges in the Pacific Region Information Environment and the role of “soft power” and strategic partners in achieving sustaining effects. To maintain stability in this region, the four elements of national power must be discussed: Diplomatic, Information, Military and Economic; within the context of dramatic changes in the Information Environment. Using this principle, Ambassador (Ret) Lauren Kahea Moriarty, Dean of Academics at the College of Security Studies, identifies the existing mechanisms for these instruments to be better integrated in order to encourage US relationships with foreign entities to leverage diplomatic and military efforts in a coordinated and unified way. Following that, Ambassador Alberto M. Fernandez from the Center for Strategic Counterterrorism Communications, adds a perspective on continued integration and coordination between regional partners and the US when violent extremism and terrorism are involved. Ambassador Brian Carlson of the US Department of State then facilitates a panel discussion by identifying where Information Operations stands within each sovereign nation.
