Long-Term Control of Ambulatory Hypertension in Children: Improving With Time But Still Not Achieving New Blood Pressure Goals
Original language description
Short-term therapy can decrease blood pressure (BP) to less than the 95th percentile in only about 50% of children. The aim of our study was to investigate the long-term control of hypertension (HT) in children using ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). We analyzed data from all children who started ramipril monotherapy in our center. Controlled HT was defined according to the most current guidelines as systolic and diastolic BP at daytime and nighttime < 90th percentile in primary HT and < 75th percentilein renoparenchymal HT. Thirty-eight children who were on therapy 1 year were included. Thirty-two children had renoparenchymal, and 6 had primary HT. The median age at the beginning of therapy was 13.6 years (range 4.118.0 years), and the median time ofantihypertensive therapy was 2.6 years (range 1.011.8 years). Thirty-four percent of children received combination therapy; the median number of antihypertensive drugs was 1.5 drugs/patient (range 14). Sixty-eight percent of children had
