Purpose
The study is designed to evaluate the effect of treatment with Micardis/MicardisPlus on blood pressure and its ability to reduce different indicated cardiovascular risks. Further on, the study will evaluate the current antihypertensive treatment pattern in the daily practice among the patient population at increased cardiovascular risk.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Change From Baseline in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Change From Baseline in Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Change From Baseline in SCORE (10 Year Risk for Fatal Cardiovascular Event) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]A 10 year risk of fatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) in populations at high risk. Minimum 0 percent risk to Maximum 47 percent risk.
- Change From Baseline in Framingham CVD Risk Assessment Score [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]10-year risk for hard coronary heart disease (CHD) outcomes (Myocardial Infarction and coronary death), according to Framingham Heart Study, measured in percent. Low risk (10 or less CHD risk at 10 years), intermediate risk (10-20), high risk (20 or more).
- Change From Baseline in Framingham Stroke Risk Assessment Score [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The risk assessment tool using data from the Framingham Heart Study to estimate 10-year risk for stroke, measured in percent. Low risk (10 or less stroke risk at 10 years), intermediate risk (10-20), high risk (20 or more).
- Change From Baseline in Risk Assessment According to ESH/ESC Guidelines [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]ESH is the European society of hypertension, and ESC is the European society of cardiology.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Pecentage of Patients That Achieved Target Blood Pressure (BP) Values According to ESH/ESC [ Time Frame: 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]ESH/ESC a goal of treatment to be below values 130/80 mm/Hg for diabetic patients and below 140/90 mmHg for non-diabetic patients
- Additional Antihypertensive Treatment Pattern at Visit 3 (End of Study) [ Time Frame: 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Participants may have taken more than one antihypertensive treatment, so the percentages will not add to 100 percent.
- Change in Heart Rate From Baseline to Study End [ Time Frame: Baseline to 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Number of Patients With Adverse Events (AE) [ Time Frame: 4-10 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Number of Participants Not Completing Study [ Time Frame: 3rd visit (4-10 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Number of participants discontinuing study early for given reason
