Prognostic impact of hypertension grading

CONCLUSIONS: We were unable to find a significant difference in the relative hazard of cardiovascular events tied to hypertension Grades 1 and 2. Conversely, Grade 3 (clinic BP ≥180/110 mmHg) portends a higher cardiovascular risk, which is associated with higher levels of 24-hour ambulatory BP.PMID:38616483 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2024.04.008
