Visit-to-Visit Blood Pressure Variability
One of the most interesting findings of hypertension research in the past 10 years has been that the cardiovascular protective effects of antihypertensive drugs depend not only on the mean blood pressure (BP) values achieved during treatment but also on the consistency of BP control between on-treatment visits. This was suggested in 2007 by the observation that in patients with hypertension and...

متن کاملTreating Visit-to-Visit Blood Pressure Variability to Improve Prognosis
Blood pressure (BP) levels are linearly associated with cardiovascular risk, and hypertension is the most common modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Moreover, antihypertensive treatment-induced BP lowering has been associated with reduction in all outcomes (stroke, heart failure, coronary events, cardiovascular, and all-cause mortality). Apart from the established knowledge regar...
متن کاملImpact of baseline systolic blood pressure on visit-to-visit blood pressure variability: the Kailuan study
BACKGROUND To investigate the relationship between baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP) and visit-to-visit blood pressure variability in a general population. METHODS This is a prospective longitudinal cohort study on cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events. Study participants attended a face-to-face interview every 2 years. Blood pressure variability was de...
