Abstract 208: A Large, Retrospective Cohort Study Comparing Cardiovascular Outcomes With {beta}-blocker Combination Treatment in Patients With Hypertension Session Title: Poster Session PM
Conclusions: In adults receiving combination antihypertension therapy, NEB treatment was associated with a lower risk for CV-related hospitalization than either ATN or MET. Lower risk of hospitalization was supported by event rate data, as patients receiving NEB combined with other antihypertensives were hospitalized less frequently than patients receiving combination therapy with either ATN or MET.

Abstract 232: Parenteral Antihypertensive Use on the First Day of Hospitalization after Acute Ischemic Stroke: A US Population Study Poster Session II
Conclusion: Approximately 16% of AIS patients receive IV AH medication in the first 24 hours of admission in the US. The rate of early AH treatment has increased over time both overall and among those who did not receive rt-PA. Whether this is due to increasingly aggressive BP treatment by physicians or higher BP on admission among AIS patients is unclear. Contrary to recommendations, nicardipine was used infrequently. More evidence is required to justify specific AH agents for BP treatment in AIS.
