Resumen :
Introducción:
La presión arterial sistólica aislada es la presentación más común de hipertensión arterial en personas mayores de 65 años. Esta se debe a la pérdida de elasticidad arterial con la edad, dando lugar a una mayor rigidez arterial.
La presión del pulso es la diferencia entre la presión a... Ver más
Introduction:
Isolated systolic pressure is the most common form of arterial hypertension in people older tan 65 years. This is due to the loss of arterial elasticity with age, leading to greater arterial stiffness.
Pulse pressure is the difference between systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. It is considered altered when it is equal to or above 60 mmHg. This altered pulse pressure increases with age and increases arterial stiffness, thus increasing systolic blood pressure. Both systolic blood pressure and elevated pulse pressure are recognized as accurate predictors of cardiovascular events.
Material and methods:
The study is carried out in the baseline situation of the escarval risk cohort in elderly hypertensive patients who come to have their blood pressure checked at health centers in la Comunidad Valenciana. This baseline situation of patient recruitment corresponds to the years 2008-2012. In the present, the scarval risk study cohort hast not yet been completed.
As a dependent variable we have pulse pressure and as independent variable we have sex, age, history of dyslipidemia and BMI. A statistical analisis of the analyzed sample (21120 people) is carried out, quantifying proportions when the variable is qualitive and mean with standard deviation when the variable is qualitive.
Results:
A total prevalence of elevated pulse pressure of 62,6% was obtained. The group that obtains a significant higher prevalence (95% CI does not share values with the resto f the groups) is when HTA + DM is combined, being the second highest prevalence, above the HTA group and the HTA + DLP group, the combination of the three cardiovascular risk factors. Older people who presented elevated PP had a higher mean age compared to people who did not have elevated PP (p<0,001; 95% CI do not share values, p<0,05). People who had elevated PP had a lower mean BMI compared to people who did not have elevated PP (p=0,023). In the multivariate análisis, no significant differences were found between men and women; OR 0,959 (0,900-1,014; p=0,131)
Conclusions:
Main objective:
Nearly 2 out of 3 hypertensive patients older than or equal to 60 years old, in primary cardiovascular prevention who attent health centers present elevated pulse pressure.
Secondary objetive:
In hypertensive patients aged 60 or over undergoing primary cardiovascular prevention who attend health centers for control, the factors associated with pulse pressure are: being diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and being 74 years of age or over.
