5 Prognostic value of blood pressure in patients with high vascular risk in the ONTARGET study In high-risk patients, the benefits from SBP lowering below 130 mmhg are driven mostly by a reduction of stroke; myocardial infarction is unaffected and cardiovascular mortality is unchanged or increased. Future trials should be designed to test the value of SBP lowering in high-risk patients with SBP in the range of mmhg. Sleight P, et al. J Hypertens 2009 Jul;27:

6 Revised ESH guidelines 2009 Go for a flexible blood pressure goal in the individual DM patient, accept less than 140 mmhg SBP in most In newly detected patients with DM2 a tighter risk factor control is a goal, but in elderly patients with long diabetes duration and many co-morbidities the BP goal should be more flexible to avoid potential harm Avoid coronary hypoperfusion and orthostatic reactions in susceptible patients Mancia G, et al.

25 Summary Diabetes is associated with increased cardiovascular risk when a multiple-risk factor control approach is needed (Steno-2) Blood pressure control can prevent micro- and macrovascular events to a varying degree in diabetes (HOT, UKPDS, ADVANCE, ACCORD) A SBP goal of well below 140 mmhg is recommended by ESH and benefits were seen in ADVANCE for SBP less than 135 mmhg, but not below 120 mmhg (ACCORD). The benefits for less than 130 mmhg are confined to stroke reduction This strategy is supported by observational data (ONTARGET, INVEST, NDR-BP) PN 2010
