Optimal Systolic Blood Pressure for the Prevention of All-Cause and Cardiovascular Disease Mortality in Older Adults With Hypertension: Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study.
Jae Jun LeeKyung Hee LeePublished in: JMIR public health and surveillance (2024)
The SBP levels within the range of 120-139 mm Hg were associated with the lowest all-cause and CVD mortality rates among older Korean adults with hypertension. It is recommended to reduce SBP to <140 mm Hg, with 120 mm Hg as the minimum value for SBP, for older Korean adults with hypertension. Additionally, stricter SBP management is required for adults aged 65-74 years.
