Change in Blood Pressure Variability Among Treated Elderly Hypertensive Patients and Its Association With Mortality

Change in Blood Pressure Variability Among Treated Elderly Hypertensive Patients and Its Association With Mortality

Background: Information is scarce regarding effects of antihypertensive medication on blood pressure variability (BPV) and associated clinical outcomes. We examined whether antihypertensive treatment changes BPV over time and whether such change (decline or increase) has any association with long-te...
