  • Arterijska hipertenzija in izolirana sistolična hipertenzija pri starejših = Arterial hypertension and isolated systolic hypertension in the elderly
    Kanič, Vojko
    The prevalence of hypertension increases with aging. Systolic blood pressure is the prime risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The treatment trials of hypertension in the elderly have been ... successful in reducing coronary heart disease events, stroke, and congestive heart failure. It is not clear how low blood pressure in the elderly should be. It is of great importance to identifythe lowest level of blood pressure demanding treatment. Drug therapy is successful but should be modified individually. Isolated systolic hypertension is treated in the same manner.
