Pulse Pressure and Risk for Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Atherothrombosis: From the REACH Registry.

BACKGROUND Pulse pressure (PP) provides valuable prognostic information in specific populations, but few studies have assessed its value on cardiovascular outcomes in a broad, worldwide population. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine whether PP is associated with major adverse cardiovascular outcomes, independently of mean arterial pressure. METHODS Participants from the inter...

Brachial pulse pressure and cardiovascular risk.

Brachial Pulse Pressure and Cardiovascular Risk To the Editor: The study by Mosley et al1 shows in a large population that, in the predictive value of cardiovascular (CV) risk, pulse pressure (PP) is less effective than systolic (SBP) or diastolic blood pressure (BP). This finding supports the usual approach of major current guidelines but also raises major questions related to SBP and PP (here...

Optimal Blood Pressure Goals in Patients With Hypertension at High Risk for Cardiovascular Events.

Existing epidemiologic and clinical trial data suggest that the blood pressure in patients with hypertension at high risk for cardiovascular events because of coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, stroke, or heart failure should be reduced to <140/90 mm Hg in patients younger than 80 years and the systolic blood pressure be reduced to 140-145 mm Hg if tolerated in ...

Pulse pressure not mean pressure determines cardiovascular risk in older hypertensive patients.

BACKGROUND Current guidelines for the management of hypertension rest almost completely on the measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However, the arterial blood pressure wave is more correctly described as consisting of a pulsatile (pulse pressure) and a steady (mean pressure) component. OBJECTIVE To explore the independent roles of pulse pressure and mean pressure as determin...
