Lower systolic blood pressure is associated with poorer survival in long-term survivors of stroke

Conclusion:There was a greater risk of poor outcome in long-term survivors of stroke with low SBP. This is further evidence that low SBP may result in poor prognosis. Ideal blood pressure levels for long-term survivors of stroke may need to be reassessed.
