5 Relative Risk of Morbidity Compared to Non Hypertensive Population Morbidity ratio (observed/expected) * *Indicates morbidity for non-hypertensive population > Diastolic pressure (mm Hg) Risk of overall morbidity increases with elevation in blood pressure VA Cooperative Study: Morbidity in Patients with a Diastolic Blood Pressure between 115 and 129 mm Hg Placebo Antihypertensive Drug Number in study Deaths 4 0 Accelerated hypertension 12 0 Cerebrovascular accident 4 1 Coronary artery disease 2 0 Congestive heart failure 2 0 Renal damage 2 0 Adapted from the VA Cooperative Study: JAMA 202:1028,1967 5

N Engl J Med. 2001;345: JNC 8 Committee: Question 1: When to initiate drug therapy In the general population younger than 60 years, initiate drug treatment at 140 mmhg or 90 mmhg or higher.

9 ACCORD STUDY: Intensive Blood Pressure Control in Type 2 Dm NEJM 2010; 362 (17); 1575 ACCORD STUDY: Intensive Blood Pressure Control in Type 2 Dm NEJM 2010; 362 (17); 1575 JNC 8 Committee Question 2 Diabetes: Initial treatment and target BP level Recommendation: In adults 18 years or older, initiate drug treatment to lower BP at a SBP of 140 mmhg or 90 mmhg and treat to lower either to less than 140 mmhg or 90 mmhg. Expert opinion (E) Other opinion: Some evidence to lower DBP to less than 85 mmhg 9

10 PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE MDRD Premise 2 levels of igfr (13 24, 25 55) 2 levels of protein intake (0.6 vs 0.3 g/k/d) 2 levels of blood pressure control (125 mmhg MAP (140/90) vs 92 mmhg MAP(125/75)) Screened: 2507 Randomized: 840 ( ) 10

11 Estimated mean decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from baseline to selected follow-up times in MDRD Peterson JC, et al Annals of Internal Medicine 1995;123: Months 32 MDRD Initial Results Over a mean of 2.2 years of follow-up, the lower BP goal was associated with a reduced rate of GFR loss, compared to the higher BP goal. This benefit was most apparent in patients with more than 1 g proteinuria per day. The study did NOT examine hard endpoints (doubling of serum creatinine, ESRD, or death) 48% of the patients in the lower goal BP group were on an ACEI compared to 26% in the goal BP group 33 11

12 MDRD Follow-up In the 10 year follow-up, the investigation noted a 32% reduction in ESRD in the lower goal BP group compared to the usual goal BP group. However Limited BP measures during the last 7 years 16-20% greater use of ACEI in the low BP arm Sarnak MJ, et. Al. Ann Intern Med 142: , AASK Randomized 1094 African-Americans to 2 levels of blood pressure: 140/90 mmhg or 125/75 mmhg. Mean measured GFR 45.3 in the conventional and 46.0 ml/min/1.73m2 in the lower BP group Urine protein excretion was 0.61 g/day in men and 0.36 in women Baseline BP was 149/95 mmhg in the conventional and 152/96 mmhg in the lower BP group. Achieved BP was 141/85 in the conventional group and 128/78 mmhg in the lower BP group. Wright J, at. el, Jama.2002;288: AASK The lower BP goal did not reduce the clinical composite of 50% reduction of GFR, ESRD, and death compared to the usual BP goal The lack of difference in outcome between BP groups was not altered by randomized treatment (ACEI, BB, or CCB) Wright J, at. el, Jama.2002;288:

13 Cumulative Incidence of the Composite Primary Outcome, According to Baseline Proteinuria Status. Appel LJ et al. N Engl J Med 2010;363: JNC 8 Committee Question 2 Chronic Kidney Disease: Initial treatment and target BP level In adults 18 to 69 years with CKD (est GFR 60 or less), initiate drug treatment to lower BP at a SBP of 140 mmhg or DBP of 90 mmhg and treat to goal SBP to lower than 140 mmhg and goal DBP to lower than 90 mmhg. In adults at any age or GFR with albuminuria (30 mg albumin/g creatinine) same goals Expert opinion (E) HYPERTENSION IN THE ELDERLY 13

Strong Recommendation (A) Controversial: Committee members were divided and recent ASH/ISH recommendation maintains goal of 140/90 or less (J Clin HTN). 15

In the black population including those with diabetes, a thiazide type diuretic or CCB are appropriate initial treatment agents. Moderate recommendation (B) for general population and weak recommendation for blacks with diabetes (C) JNC 8 Committee: Question 3: Initial pharmacologic agents (con t) No specific recommendation on thiazide type although bulk of EBM is with Chlorthalidone. Beta blocker agents not recommended as initial agents due to possible less protection against strokes. Sympatholytics or non CCB vasodilators not recommended, as well. 17

18 Conclusions New JNC 8 Committee hypertension recommendations are more evidenced based and focused on three critical questions rather than a comprehensive review of the disease state. However, expert opinion is still heavily used. They challenge the current thinking/dogma. The initial BP to start treatment and goal BP levels are higher than previous recommendations, particularly in patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease, and in the the elderly. Thank you! 18
