Hypertension is well known globally as a major health issue because of its high magnitude and further complications of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Bangladesh has witnessed a gradual epidemiological transition where communicable diseases especially the chronic ones are dominating including the rural area where people have least access to the health care services. As is evident from aforementioned complications, hypertension if not well managed, equally has dire consequences hence calls early diagnosis and intervention. Consequently, hypertension prevalence in low-income countries rises due to certain lifestyle aspects; for instance, Afghanistan. In regard to this, Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) questionnaires facilitate in assessing gaps in the approach toward managing hypertension. The same issues are seen in Benin: China, Egypt: Ethiopia, Ghana: India: Iran, Lebanon, Malaysia: and Mongolia where the government acknowledges that solutions should be specific to increase awareness, act on lifestyle factors and therapy compliance. Thus, management of hypertension must address general approaches to reducing the burden of hypertension and its effects on the affected individuals and healthcare facilities across the world.
