Optimal achieved blood pressure for patients with stable coronary artery disease.
Scientific Reports 2017 August 32
We aimed to investigate the ideal achieved blood pressure (BP) in ethnic Chinese patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) in Taiwan. A total of 2,045 patients (age 63.5 ± 11.9 years, 1,722 male [84.2%]) with stable CAD who had undergone percutaneous coronary interventions were enrolled. The achieved systolic BP was 130.6 ± 17.7 mmHg and diastolic BP was 74.9 ± 12.0 mmHg. In 12 months, patients with systolic BP < 120 mmHg and systolic BP ≥ 160 mmHg had increased risk of total cardiovascular events when compared to those with systolic BP 120-139 mmHg. In 24 months, patients with systolic BP < 120 mmHg and systolic BP ≥ 160 mmHg had increased risk of total cardiovascular events when compared to those with systolic BP 120-139 mmHg; patients with diastolic BP < 70 mmHg had increased risk of total cardiovascular events when compared to those with diastolic BP 70-79 mmHg. In conclusion, systolic BP < 120 mmHg and ≥160 mmHg or diastolic BP < 70 mmHg is associated with increased cardiovascular events, supporting that the optimal BP control should also be justified for stable CAD in non-western cohorts.
