CAD is 2 to 3 fold more frequent in hypertensive than in normotensive patients in a general population of patients with angina pectoris, a history of hypertension is present in 60% of patients Pepine et al. Am J Cardiol 1994; 74:226±231
Diagnosis 30 40% have a positive electrocardiogram (ECG) exercise test The specificity of ECG stress testing is low in hypertensives, with or without left ventricular hypertrophy (30 50%) 50% of hypertensive patients with normal coronary arteries and electrocardiographic signs of ischemia during stress testing have no evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy the accuracy of stress echocardiography is high
There is no question that treatment of Hypertension will prevent CV Complications Does it Matter How We Do it?
When to initiate antihypertensive treatment? the level of systolic and diastolic blood pressure the level of total cardiovascular risk

BP and Treatment Goals On the basis of this huge cohort and prospective studies such as the intravascular ultrasound substudy of CAMELOT, it appears reasonable to propose that the target BP for individuals at risk for the development of CAD should be lower than that for low risk individuals. Specifically, we recommend a target BP of 130/80 mm Hg for individuals with demonstrated CAD, or CAD risk equivalents (carotid artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm), and for high risk patients, defined as those with diabetes mellitus,chronic renal disease, or a 10 year Framingham risk score of 10% AHA scientific statement.

J curve effect between DBP and hazard ratio for cardiovascular complications in patients with revascularization and in those without. Revascularized patients have lower hazard ratios for cardiovascular complications
Get systolic BP < 120 mmhg and don t worry about diastolic BP CAMELOT- IVUS substudy n=274 Entry BP 130/77 Sipahi I, et al., JACC 2006 48:833-838.
J curve may be an epiphenomenon of a more severe and debilitating underlying chronic condition (including cancer) and the low pressure maybe a mere marker of this illness thereby increasing mortality. low pressure may be an epiphenomenon of impaired cardiac function. may represent an epiphenomenon of increased arterial stiffness, i.e. a low DBP might be simply a marker for high pulse pressure and hence the increase in mortality. low DBP may compromise coronary perfusion. Since coronary perfusion occurs in diastole, diastolic hypotension could lead to coronary hypoperfusion in patients with compromised coronary flow reserve such as those with CAD
Reappraisal of European guidelines on hypertension management: a European Society of Hypertension Task Force document The recommendation of previous guidelines to aim at a lower goal SBP (<130mmHg) in patients at very high cardiovascular risk (previous cardiovascular events) may be wise, but it is not consistently supported by trial evidence. In trials in which SBP was lowered to below 130mmHg in patients with previous cardiovascular events have given controversial results. Journal of Hypertension 2009, 27:2121 2158
2007 AHA Guidelines: Treatment of Hypertension in the Prevention and Management of Ischemic Heart Disease In achieving a target BP < 130/80 mmhg for secondary prevention, the BP should be lowered slowly and caution is advised in inducing falls of diastolic BP below 60mmg. Rosendorff C et al., Circulation 2007,115:2761-2788.
AHA SCIENTIFIC STATEMENT Lowering SBP improves cardiac function and outcomes, probably through reduction in cardiac work and improved myocardial oxygen balance. it is theoretically possible that lowering of DBP improves cardiovascular outcomes only when coronary perfusion is maintained above the lower limit of coronary autoregulation.
