Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
Hypertension (chronically elevated arterial blood pressure) is one of the most common disorders worldwide. In the U.S., hypertension affects 1 in 4, or upwards of 50 million adults with only 70% being aware of their diagnosis. Hypertension is tightly linked with cardiovascular risk and fatal outcomes. One of the dangers of hypertension is its asymptomatic nature, as untreated hypertension can result in increased cardiac output, heart volume, and damage to arteries
and vessel walls.
This succint pocket volume aims to provide primary care practitioners and other healthcare professionals with essential, evidence-based guidance on the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Written by noted experts in the field, with a foreword by the former president of the American Society of Hypertension, this volume is focused on providing key insights into choosing the appropriate treatment regimen for each patient, as well as direction on proper patient monitoring for safety and
effectiveness of various interventions. To that end, the volume features numerous tools, such as forms, charts, graphs, and algorithms to assist the busy clinician in providing the best care for their patients with hypertension.
