Journal Article
Blood pressure in the longevous population with different status of hypertension and frailty
2024
Overview
[...]the study population included not only those with frailty but also the robust oldest old, with a blood pressure of 160 mmHg. [...]lowering the blood pressure of the frail oldest old with antihypertensive treatment might lead to the shortening of their life expectancy, akin to the observed correlation between a decrease in blood pressure and life expectancy in the frail population. [...]future studies are warranted to determine whether drug interventions or conservative treatments, such as salt restriction, should be selected (Fig. 1). [...]an increase in dBp is also correlated with the risk of mortality. [...]treatment interventions should be carefully selected based on the condition of each individual. In particular, the unaware hypertension group did not receive any antihypertensive treatment. [...]caution should be exercised when implementing an antihypertensive intervention based on the sBp in the oldest-old population, especially those with frailty, in contrast to the robust population observed in the HYVET study.
