Long-term clinical outcomes according to the mean observed blood pressure in patients with coronary artery disease after drug-eluting stent implantation
Journal of Hypertension Aug 05, 2019
Kim JL, Sunwoo C, Park JB, et al. - By reviewing records of 1,010 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who had undergone drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, the clinical outcomes according to the mean observed blood pressure were assessed in these patients by the researchers. They excluded in-hospital mortality cases (n = 79). On the basis of the average SBP (SBP) at the outpatient clinic, patients were divided into 2 groups: mean SBP 120 mmHg or less (n = 290) and mean SBP greater than 120 mmHg (n = 641). Major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events were assessed as the primary endpoint. In CAD patients with DES, a lower incidence of future adverse outcomes was reported in relation to mean observed SBP 120 mmHg or less.
