- Title
New Insight of Morning Blood Pressure Surge Into the Triggers of Cardiovascular Disease--Synergistic Resonance of Blood Pressure Variability.
- Authors
Kazuomi Kario
- Abstract
The author discusses the study on the association of morning blood pressure (BP) surge with coronary events in medicated elderly hypertensive patients. He mentions the importance of the near identical hazard ratios of the patients between stroke and coronary events, failure of the study to strictly refer the onset time of cardiovascular events, and the tendency of intermittent measurement of BP to underestimate the cardiovascular risk of morning BP surge.
