blood pressure (BP), the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) has developed worldwide practice guidelines for the management of hypertension in adults, aged 18 years and older. The ISH Guidelines Committee extracted evidence-based content presented in recently published extensively reviewed guidelines and tailored and standards

2024年2月15日 · Most notably, the new guidelines state that: (1) The BP threshold for treatment in the general population is ≥140 mmHg SBP and/or 90 mmHg DBP, with a treatment target <130/80 mmHg and encouragement to reach a range of 120 to 129/70 to 79 mmHg; (2) in patients aged 65 to 79 years, an initial primary SBP target of …

2024年3月29日 · The FDA approved a new treatment for uncontrolled high blood pressure. The once-daily oral medication, called Tryvio (aprocitentan), is expected to be available in the second half of 2024. Tryvio is approved for use in combination other antihypertensive medications.
