| Popis: | OBJECTIVE: The goal of this review study is to summarize 30 years of research on cut-off limits for the self-measured blood pressure. METHODS: We reviewed two meta-analyses, several prospective outcome studies in populations and hypertensive patients, studies in pregnant women, three clinical trials and the thresholds proposed in earlier and current hypertension guidelines. RESULTS: In line with existing guidelines, prospective studies support that levels of the self-measured blood pressure at home of greater than or equal to 135 mmHg systolic or greater than or equal to 85 mmHg diastolic indicate hypertension. Circumstantial data suggest that levels of the self-measured blood pressure below 120/80 and 130/85 mmHg are optimal and normal, respectively. Therapeutic targets of the self-measured blood pressure to be attained on antihypertensive drug treatment are currently unknown, but should logically be lower ( |
