5 What is the target?

6 Revisit the JNC 7 guidelines Blood pressure goal: <140/90 mmhg for most patients <130/80 mmhg for patients with DM/CKD

7 JNC8: BP goal for elderly patients Age, mmhg All cause mortality Heart failure Stroke CHD 60,<150 (HYVET) (SHEP,HYVET) (Syst-eur,SHEP, HYVET) (Syst-eur,SHEP) BP goal 80,< ,<150 (HYVET) (Syst-eur,SHEP) ,<140 (JATOS VALISH) (JATOS VALISH) (JATOS VALISH) (JATOS VALISH) :agree; :disagree - :N/A Note: # HYVET was stopped early because of a 21% reduction in mortality in the active treatment group. If the study had not been stopped early, the reduction in fatal or non fatal stroke may have been significant by the end of the trial. ; *EWPHE: an 11% reduction in non fatal cerebrovascular events at one year (p <0.05) and a 32% non significant decrease (p = 0.16) in cerebrovascular mortality at the end of the trial In elderly 60,lower the SBP to<150mmhg is associated with statistically significant improvement in CCV outcome BP goal for elderly patients: < 150/90 mmhg

8 JNC 8: BP goal for patients with CKD Age,mmHg GFR ESRD CCV event Mortality BP goal <70 (CKD subgroup) <130/80 vs <140/90 (AASK MDRD REIN-2) (AASK MDRD REIN-2) (AASK) (AASK) <70 (proteinurea subgroup) <130/80 vs <140/90 (AASK* MDRD # ) (AASK REIN-2) :agree; :disagree - :N/A Note: # MDRD:proteinurea>3g/24hr group ; *AASK:proteinurea>300mg/d group vs <300mg/d group In adults <70 years with CKD, the evidence is insufficient to determine if there is a benefit in mortality or CCV outcomes with antihypertensive drug therapy to a goal <130/80mmHg compared with <140/90mmHg BP goal for patients with CKD: < 140/90 mmhg

9 JNC 8: BP goal for diabetes Age, mmhg All-cause mortality DM related endpoints Heart failure stroke CHD Diabetes <150 (Syst-Eur UKPDS SHEP) (UKPDS) _ (Syst-Eur UKPDS) (SHEP) BP goal Diabetes <120 vs <140 50years with diabetes <80 vs <90 _ (ACCORD) (ACCORD) _ (ACCORD) (HOT) (ACCORD) (HOT) diabetes* <80 vs <90 (ABCD hypertension) (HOT UKPDS) :agree; :disagree - :N/A Note: *diabetes subgroup:sbp: mmhg or DBP:80-89mmHg or hypertensive patients In absence of RCTs addressed whether treatment to an SBP goal < 140 mm Hg compared with <150mmHg improves health outcomes in adults with diabetes and hypertension, the panel recommends BP goal for patients with DM: < 140/90 mmhg

10 JNC 8: more lenient systolic blood pressure goal Treat to 150/90 in patients aged over 60 and 140/90 for everybody else.

11 Which drug?

12 Revisit the JNC 7 guidelines Preferred initial therapy: Thiazide-type diuretics

13 JNC 8: no preference among initial drugs General population CKD presented Diuretics is no longer the single best initial drug. New guideline recommends: No preference among the 4 initial drugs: thiazide diuretic, ACEI, ARB and CCB. For black patients: CCB or diuretics should be recommended. For CKD patients: ARB or ACEI should be included to improve kidney outcome.

14 Guideline Comparisons of Goal BP and Initial Drug Therapy for Adults With Hypertension

15 Single or combination therapy?

16 Revisit the JNC 7 guidelines Strategy to dose: Optimize the first agent before adding the second agent

17 JNC8: If goal BP is not reached within 1 month, adjust the treatment regimen until goal is reached The main objective of hypertension treatment is to attain and maintain BP goals! If BP goal is not achieved within 1 month: Increase dose of initial drug Start combination therapy Either separate of single pill Destination is important and not the journey!

18 2013 AHA/ACC/CDC: initiation of combination therapy in patients at stage 2 hypertension SBP>160mmHg or DBP>100mmHg (stage 2 hypertension),two drugs preferred lifestyle modification and thiazide and ACEI /ARB or CCB or consider ACEI and CCB Recheck and review readings in 2-4 weeks* NO Thiazide for most patients or ACEI ARB CCB or combo If currently on BP med(s), titrate and/or add drug from different class BP at goal? YES Recheck and review readings in 2-4 weeks* BP at goal? No Optimize dosage or add medications Address adherence, advise on selfmonitoring, and request readings from home and other settings Consider secondary causes Yes observation Consider referral to HTN specialist Go AS, et al. Hypertension Nov 15.

19 Why combination? There is a need for multiple agents to achieve target SBP goals Trial (SBP achieved) ASCOT-BPLA (136.9 mmhg) ALLHAT (138 mmhg) IDNT (138 mmhg) RENAAL (141 mmhg) UKPDS (144 mmhg) ABCD (132 mmhg) MDRD (132 mmhg) HOT (138 mmhg) AASK (128 mmhg) Bakris et al.

23 Which combination?

24 Which combination preferred? Recommendation from ESH/ESC 2013 guidelines: possible but less well tested combination useful combination with some limitation preferred combinations not recommended combination

25 ESH/ESC 2013 guidelines: Drug to be preferred in specific conditions Condition drug ARB CCB Diuretic ACEI BB Asymptomatic organ damage LVH Asymptomatic atherosclerosis Microalbuminuria Renal dysfunction Clinical CV events Previous stroke Previous myocardial infarction Angina pectoris Heart failure Aortic aneurysm Atrial fibrillation, prevention Atrial fibrillation, ventricular rate control # ESRD/proteinuria Peripheral artery disease Other ISH (elderly) Metabolic syndrome Diabetes mellitus Pregnancy Methyldopa Blacks

26 Which combination preferred? Recommendation from NICE 2011 guidelines: <55 years 55 years or black patients at any age Step 1 ACEI / ARB CCB Step 2 ACEI / ARB + CCB Step 3 ACEI / ARB + CCB + diuretic Step 4 Add further diuretic therapy, α-blocker, or β-blocker.

46 Definitions of Heart Failure Heart failure is the pathophysiological state in which the heart is unable to pump blood at a rate commensurate with the requirements of the metabolizing tissues or can do so only from an elevated filling pressure. Eugene Braunwald

58 Ivabradine Ivabradine acts by reducing the heart rate via specific inhibition of the funny channel, a mechanism different from beta blockers and calcium channel blockers Blocking this channel reduces cardiac pacemaker activity, slowing the heart rate and allowing more time for blood to flow to the myocardium

59 Aim To assess the effect of ivabradine on outcomes in heart failure patients on recommended background therapies with heart rates 75 bpm in the SHIFT trial Bö hm M, Borer J, Ford I, et al. Clin Res Cardiol. 2013;102(1):
