Background There has been significant controversy about the effects of pre‐hospitalization use of renin‐angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors on the prognosis of patients with hypertension and coronavirus disease 2019. Methods and Results We retrospectively assessed 2297 hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 at Tongji Hospital in Wuhan, China, from January 10 to March 30, 2020; and identified 1182 patients with known hypertension on pre‐hospitalization therapy. We compared the baseline characteristics and in‐hospital mortality between patients with hypertension taking RAS inhibitors (n=355) versus non‐RAS inhibitors (n=827). Of the 1182 patients with hypertension (median age 68 years, 49.1% male), 12/355 (3.4%) patients died in the RAS inhibitors group versus 95/827 (11.5%) patients in the non‐RAS inhibitors group (P |
