Therapeutic inertia, characterized by a failure to escalate treatment in the face of uncontrolled disease, poses a substantial challenge across various severe medical conditions. This paper explores the unmasking of therapeutic inertia with a focus on bridging gaps in treatment strategies. The inertia links through the lens of hypertension management in the United States, shedding light on historical trends and the persistent racial disparities in blood pressure control, heart failure, hypertension, obesity, glycemia and Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Efforts to combat its impact encompass diverse initiatives targeting public awareness and care management systems at individual and systemic levels. Prompt medication administration, specific therapeutic agents and augmenting hospital resources are among the strategies outlined in this comprehensive review, shedding light on multifaceted approaches to mitigate the profound effects of therapeutic inertia across various severe diseases in healthcare systems.
