hypertension stages
Subject: hypertension stages
Hi,
Anyone know if stages of hypertension are now to be noted with Arabic numerals? I have always been taught that they are to be in Roman numeral form. If you have the answer to this, please send me the reference as well, as I haven't been able to find this in any of my medical term books/references. Even my Stedman's Cardiology book doesn't have information on this as far as I've been able to find. Thanks so much for any help!
