Blood Pressure Variability and Its Management in Hypertensive Patients
Optimizing treatment for hypertension has focused on reducing cardiovascular risk through reduction of mean blood pressure (BP) under the basic assumption that lower is better, as long as diastolic BP is sufficient to maintain coronary perfusion. However, antihypertensive therapy as currently practiced does not eliminate all hazards associated with BP elevation. Blood pressure variability (BPV)...
متن کاملcircadian blood pressure variability in normo and hypertensive diabetic patients
background: diabetic patients have a higher prevalence of non-dipping pattern in blood pressure (bp) than general population. non-dipping arterial pressure pattern is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. the objective of this study was to investigate the association between the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of the diabetic patients with circadian bp variability. m aterials...
متن کاملLacidipine and blood pressure variability in diabetic hypertensive patients.
The aim of our study was to assess the effects of lacidipine, a long-acting calcium antagonist, on 24-hour average blood pressure, blood pressure variability, and baroreflex sensitivity. In 10 mildly to moderately hypertensive patients with type II diabetes mellitus (aged 18 to 65 years), 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure was continuously monitored noninvasively (Portapres device) after a 3-wee...
متن کاملBlood pressure variability and its association with echocardiographic parameters in hypertensive diabetic patients
BACKGROUND Blood pressure (BP) variability is associated with target organ damage in hypertension and diabetes. The 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24 h-ABPM) has been proposed as an evaluation for BP variability using several indexes [standard deviation (SD) of mean BP, coefficient of variation (CV), BP variation over time (time-rate index)]. METHODS We evaluated the association b...
متن کاملVariability of circadian blood pressure profile during 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in hypertensive patients.
BACKGROUND Evaluation of circadian blood pressure (BP) profile is an important element of ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). Abnormal nocturnal fall in BP is more common in patients with secondary causes of hypertension and in the elderly. Cardiovascular risk is substantially increased in these patients. AIM Analysis of circadian BP profile in a population of treated hypertensives and identific...
