Collaborative Effort to Tackle Hypertension

A two-day seminar and workshop on the Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) for the Management of Hypertension was held on 2nd and 3rd August 2025 at Royale Chulan Damansara — a collaboration between PERDIM, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), and the Academy of Family Physicians of Malaysia (AFPM).

This programme was designed to provide training and continuous medical education (CME) for general practitioners on the latest hypertension CPG with the goal of enhancing patient care through an evidence-based approach.

The event was officiated by Dr Boi Saidi bin Abdul Razak, President of PERDIM. It featured distinguished speakers delivering core updates, followed by interactive workshops.

The workshop sessions were led by AFPM facilitators, focusing on the clinical application of the CPG in the general practice setting.

AFPM would like to express heartfelt appreciation to the organizing committee for the invitation to contribute to the success of this programme. Together, let us continue raising the bar in primary care practice.
