近数十年来所广泛收集的资料证实,高血压是中年人(男性与女性)中好发动脉粥样硬化症的三个主要易患因素之一。惟对超过65岁的老年人中高血压具有预后意义的资料尚有限。本文旨在复习老年人高血压的最新知识。美国和其他一些国家人群的研究提示,平均收缩压随着年龄的增长而增高,明显超过舒张压增高的程度。这反映了随着年龄的增长,人群中有一个较大的比例,收缩压增高而不伴以舒张压的增高,即所谓纯收缩期高血压。纯收缩期高血压的患病率,甚至在七
Data collected extensively over decades confirm that hypertension is one of the three major predisposing factors for the development of atherosclerosis in middle-aged men and women. However, there is limited information on the prognostic significance of hypertension in people over 65 years of age. This article aims to review the latest knowledge of hypertension in the elderly. Studies in the United States and other countries suggest that mean systolic blood pressure increases with age and significantly exceeds the increase in diastolic blood pressure. This reflects a large proportion of the population with increasing age, systolic blood pressure increased without being associated with increased diastolic blood pressure, the so-called pure systolic hypertension. The prevalence of pure systolic hypertension, even in seven
