One-year study of felodipine or placebo for stage 1 isolated systolic hypertension.
Asubstantial number of older hypertensive patients have stage 1 isolated systolic hypertension (systolic blood pressure between 140 and 159 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure <90 mm Hg), but there are currently no data showing that drug treatment is effective, safe, and/or beneficial. To compare the effects of active treatment compared with placebo on blood pressure, left ventricular hypertroph...
متن کاملDASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is effective treatment for stage 1 isolated systolic hypertension.
Use of the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet, which is rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy foods, significantly lowers blood pressure. Among the 459 participants in the DASH Trial, 72 had stage 1 isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) (systolic blood pressure, 140 to 159 mm Hg; diastolic blood pressure, <90 mm Hg). We examined the blood pressure response in these 72 pa...
متن کاملAmlodipine versus chlorthalidone versus placebo in the treatment of stage I isolated systolic hypertension.
The study was to compare the effects of amlodipine (calcium channel antagonist), chlorthalidone (diuretic), and placebo in adults more than 50 years of age with stage 1 isolated systolic hypertension (ISH). After a 4-week placebo run-in phase, 150 patients were randomly assigned in a double-blind fashion to treatment with 5 mg of amlodipine (n = 48), 15 mg of chlorthalidone (n = 50), or placebo...
متن کاملThe Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet lowered systolic blood pressure in stage-1 isolated systolic hypertension.
M a i n r e s u l t s Analysis was by intention to treat. SBP was lower in patients assigned to the DASH diet than in those assigned to the control diet (P < 0.001) or those assigned to the fruitsand-vegetables diet (P < 0.01) (Table). In the DASH diet group, more patients reduced their SBP to < 140 mm Hg than did those in the control group (Table). The difference in SBP reduction was of border...
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...
