Abstract:
The main objectives of antihypertensive therapy for elderly patients with hypertension are to reduce the disability rate and mortality caused by hypertension and to improve the life expectancy of elderly patients.It is of great clinical significance to establish the target value and lower target value of antihypertensive treatment for elderly patients with hypertension, but there is still no consensus on the definition of the target value and the lower value.In this article, the literature about the target value and lower target value of antihypertensive therapy for elderly patients with hypertension is reviewed.
