Underdiagnosis of Isolated Systolic and Isolated Diastolic Hypertension

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2021
Systolic and diastolic hypertension independently predict the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. It remains unclear how systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and other patient characteristics influence the initial diagnosis of hypertension. Here, we use a cohort of 146,816 adults in a large healthcare system to examine how elevated systolic and/or

Isolated Systolic Hypertension

2017
ISH is diagnosed when systolic blood pressure is more than 140 mmHg with a normal or low diastolic pressure (less than 90 mmHg). Prevalence of ISH increases with age, and it is one of the special problems in hypertension among geriatric population. Contrary to traditional thinking, systolic hypertension is a strong predictor of cardiovascular

Isolated systolic and diastolic hypertension by the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guidelines and risk of cardiovascular disease: a large prospective cohort study

Journal of Hypertension, 2021
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text Objective: The 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association blood pressure (BP) guidelines lowered the hypertension threshold from a SBP/DBP level of at least 140/90 mmHg to at least

Isolated systolic hypertension and 29-year cardiovascular mortality risk in Japanese adults aged 30--49 years

Journal of Hypertension, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text Objective: The prognostic implication of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), defined as SBP at least 140 mmHg and DBP less than 90 mmHg, among young-to-middle-aged adults remains controversial.

Treatment strategies for isolated systolic hypertension in elderly patients

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2020
Introduction Hypertension is a major and modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Its prevalence is rising as the result of population aging.

Managing Isolated Systolic Hypertension

The American Journal of Nursing, 1993
Betty Allen, age 72, is admitted to your med-surg unit with a diagnosis of pneumonia. Luckily, she'd been in good health and had taken no regular medication. Her pneumonia responded to antibiotic treatment. But her vital signs have shown systolic blood pressures consistently in the 180s and diastolic pressures in the 70s.

ISOLATED SYSTOLIC HYPERTENSION

Journal of Hypertension, 2004
The prevalence of essential hypertension is very high in Western Countries and isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) is the peculiar form of older patients. ISH was considered a physiological condition until the '80s and it was recognised as a real disease only in the '90s, when the efficacy of pharmacological treatments in terms of cardiovascular ...

Isolated systolic hypertension in the young: a position paper endorsed by the European Society of Hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 2018
&NA; Whether isolated systolic hypertension in the young (ISHY) implies a worse outcome and needs antihypertensive treatment is still a matter for dispute. ISHY is thought to have different mechanisms than systolic hypertension in the elderly.

Slow loaded breathing training improves blood pressure, lung capacity and arm exercise endurance for older people with treated and stable isolated systolic hypertension

Experimental Gerontology, 2018
Background: Hypertension and reduced lung function are important features of aging. Slow loaded breathing training reduces resting blood pressure and the question is whether this can also improve lung function.
