Risk calculators and risk factors for Coronary heart disease secondary prevention blood pressure control

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Overview

If a patient's blood pressure is greater than 120/80 mm Hg, lifestyle modifications such as weight control, alcohol moderation, salt reduction, increased physical activity, more fruits, more vegetables, and low-fat dairy diets should be initiated. If a patient's blood pressure is greater than 140/90 mm Hg then blood pressure medications such as beta blockers and ACE inhibitors should be added as tolerated.

2006 AHA/ACC Guidelines for Secondary Prevention for Patients with Coronary and other Atherosclerotic Vascular Disease (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Blood Pressure Management (DO NOT EDIT) [1]

Class I
"1. All patients should be counseled regarding the need for lifestyle modification: weight control; increased physical activity; alcohol moderation; sodium reduction; and emphasis on increased consumption of fresh fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products. [2][3][4][5][6] (Level of Evidence: B) "
"2. Patients with blood pressure ≥140/90 mm Hg should be treated, as tolerated, with blood pressure medication, treating initially with β-blockers and/or ACE inhibitors, with addition of other drugs as needed to achieve goal blood pressure. [2][7][8] (Level of Evidence: A)"
Goal: <140/90 mm Hg or <130/80 mm Hg if patient has diabetes or chronic kidney disease.
