Atrial fibrillation and isolated systolic hypertension: the systolic hypertension in the elderly program and systolic hypertension in the elderly program-extension study.
We performed a post hoc analysis of the Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program database to assess the incidence of atrial fibrillation in the elderly hypertensive population, its influence on cardiovascular events, and whether antihypertensive treatment can prevent its onset. The Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program was a double-blind placebo-controlled trial in 4736 subjects with...
متن کاملAtrial Fibrillation and Hypertension.
Hypertension has a major impact on the pathogenesis, management, and prognosis of atrial fibrillation (AF; Figure). Common consequences of hypertension, such as left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, kidney dysfunction, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular disorders, are recognized risk factors for AF occurrence and development of its complications. Hypertension is very common in AF patients (Figure...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation and hypertension
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and hypertension often coexist and are both responsible for considerable morbidity and mortality. Aggressive treatment of hypertension, especially with a RAS-blocker, may postpone or prevent AF development and reduce thromboembolic complications. Focus on primary prevention of atrial fibrillation with optimal antihypertensive treatment may reduce morbidity, mortality an...
متن کاملsingle beat determination of intraventricular systolic dyssynchrony in patients with atrial fibrillation and systolic dysfunction.
results: the average of dyssynchrony in eight cycles showed a positive correlation with dyssynchrony in target beat rr1/rr2 = 1. average of dyssynchrony in target beat was 46.77 msec, and average of 8 cycle was = 47.701, (p value = 0.776, pearson linear correlation 0.769). objectives: we proposed to evaluate intraventricular mechanical dyssynchrony by measuring time-to-peak systolic velocity be...
متن کاملIsolated systolIc hypertensIon
Until the 1980’s the diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was assumed to be the most relevant hemodynamic parameter for prognosis of hypertensive patients. Elevated systolic pressure was considered as an inevitable consequence of aging and many physicians were reluctant to pay credence to the need for therapy of elevated systolic blood pressure. There was a radical change in thinking based on epidemi...
