Hypertension Flashcards
normal BP followup time
1 year
elevated BP followup time and tx
3-6 months, non pharm
stage 1 tx and followup
ASC >10% or comorbid = nonpharm + 1 agent - 1 month
ASCVD <10% = nonpharm - 3-6 months
stage 2 tx and followup
nonpharm and 2+ agents - 1 month

3-6 months
tx initiation BP for ASCVD >10% or CVD
130/80
tx initiation for diabetes
130/80
tx initiation for secondary stroke
140/90
SPRINT trial pts and outcome
no diabtetes/stroke
tighter BP goal decreased CV events 25%
ACCORD trial pts and outcome
diabetes and CVD
no death benefit with tighter goal
decrease stroke risk 41%
