You're right, I missed the "have HAD". The correct query would of course be "all patients with an EVALUATION.problem_diagnosis with one of a defined set of codes for ‘hypertension’".
A doctor making and recording a conclusion that a measurement of some kind is too high or too low, IS a diagnosis. A similar example using lab results would be a measured serum sodium level of 105 mmol/L, with the attached (from the lab) reference range of 115-160 mmol/L. The fact that the measurement is outside the reference range is an indication to the doctor that something is wrong, but their conclusion would be recorded as a diagnosis of hyponatremia. When the patient at a later point is better and a subsequent sodium result is back within the reference range, the hyponatremia diagnosis would be set as resolved.

It would not be. Because the two assertions are not equivalent.
