<strong>Hypertension</strong> <strong>CAD</strong> Connection<br />
•<strong>Hypertension</strong> is a major risk factor for<br />
coronary atherosclerosis<br />
•<strong>Hypertension</strong> is present <strong>in</strong> 50% <strong>of</strong> patients<br />
<strong>with</strong> NSTEMI<br />
•<strong>Hypertension</strong> is an adverse prognostic factor<br />
<strong>in</strong> MI , <strong>in</strong>dependent predictor <strong>of</strong> death<br />
•<strong>Patients</strong> <strong>with</strong> ACS <strong>of</strong>ten have vasomotor<br />
<strong>in</strong>stability–tendency to exaggerated response<br />
to antihypertensive drugs<br />

• Increased MI prevalence <strong>in</strong> those <strong>with</strong><br />

• Whether low BP could be associated <strong>with</strong> excess<br />
mortality and morbidity <strong>in</strong> hypertensive patients<br />
<strong>with</strong> <strong>CAD</strong>.<br />
• Results<br />
– J-shaped relationship between DPB and all course death<br />
and MI.<br />
– Increased risk occurr<strong>in</strong>g at DPB below 70 to 80 mmHg i.e.<br />
the lower the DBP, the higher the risk.<br />

CONCLUSION<br />
• In patients <strong>with</strong> high DBP and occlusive <strong>CAD</strong><br />
<strong>with</strong> evidence <strong>of</strong> ischemia:<br />
– BP should be lowered slowly.<br />
– Falls <strong>of</strong> DBP below 60 mmHg should be<br />
avoided if the patient has diabetes or is over<br />
the age <strong>of</strong> 60 years.<br />
