Estimating the Time Needed to Potentially Derive Clinical Benefit from Intensive BP Treatment in Patients 60 Years and Older

A secondary analysis of 27,414 patients from six trials was done to estimate the time needed to potentially derive clinical benefit from intensive BP treatment in hypertensive patients 60 years and older.

The Study Found that IBPT with 100 patients ≥60 Years of Age with Hypertension for Approximately 3 Years Would Prevent 1 MACE.

BP: Blood Pressure; MACE: Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events; IBPT: Intensive Blood Pressure Treatment;
HR: Hazard Ratio
