It should be emphasized that arterial hypertension remains one of the most significant global health challenges. In this regard, early diagnosis plays a crucial role in reducing morbidity and mortality associated with cardiovascular, neurological, and renal complications. Moreover, timely detection allows the implementation of preventive strategies before irreversible organ damage occurs. Therefore, the present article aims to provide a deeply analyzed discussion of the importance of early diagnosis, highlighting its clinical, pathophysiological, and public health significance.
