Is blood pressure 79 41 dangerous for 88 year olds?

We must first review the definition of hypertension guidelines, 1. The ideal blood pressure level is less than 120mmHg systolic blood pressure and less than 80mmHg; 2. Normal blood pressure, systolic blood pressure 120-130mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 80-84mmHg; 3. The normal high value of blood pressure, systolic blood pressure is 130-139mmHg, and diastolic blood pressure is 85-89mmHg. The diagnostic criteria for hypertension are systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg, and are applicable to all patients with hypertension, including older people. Normal blood pressure for the elderly, first of all, we need to know that the blood pressure of the elderly is still below 120mmHg is the best, below 140mmHg is also acceptable, and more than 140mmHg is hypertension.

For a patient with hypertension, the target value for lowering blood pressure varies at different age groups. For example, for the elderly aged 65-80 years, the target value of blood pressure reduction must be reduced to below 140 90 mmHg, and it is best to tolerate it below 130 80 mmHg; In the elderly over 80 years of age, the target value of blood pressure reduction is below 150 mmHg, and the tolerance is below 140 mmHg. Therefore, there is no fixed value in the current guidelines for hypertension, and the lower the blood pressure is the better if it is tolerated.

Many of us now have misunderstandings in the category of hypertension, and it is normal to drop it to 140 90mmHg, which is not the case.

It should be said that it is dangerous, according to the standard high pressure 90-140

The low blood pressure value is 60-90, so 79 41 is still quite low, and low blood pressure value is easy to cause vomiting, dizziness, especially easy to fall, and fractures are more likely to occur.

The patient is 78 years old, with a high blood pressure of 147 and a low blood pressure of 68, how to lower blood pressure in this situation? This is a very down-to-earth problem, and it is estimated that the elderly in the family of friends with such problems are facing this kind of health problems. So, how much is the most appropriate blood pressure control for a 78-year-old like this?

What is the blood pressure level of an elderly patient with high blood pressure of 147 and low blood pressure of 68? Next, Dr. Zhang will give you a brief introduction to this kind of problem.

In fact, in terms of age, the elderly over 75 years old belong to the category of "old age". At this age, even if there are no underlying diseases, the functions of the body are in a state of decline. Take kidney function as an example, the glomerular filtration rate of the elderly over 75 years old will decrease, and even some elderly people will reduce it very significantly, so special attention needs to be paid to the selection of some drugs.

This is also the reason why many medical experts pay attention to the various physical indicators of the elderly when they see a doctor, and they will not use drugs excessively. Let's get down to business and continue to talk about this question in the opening title.

In fact, there is such an understanding in the field of hypertension in China that for the elderly over 75 years old, the high pressure control does not exceed 150mmHg, and the low pressure control does not exceed 90mmHg, which is acceptable. Obviously, the high and low pressure of the elderly patients mentioned in the title are not exceeded, and they are all within an acceptable range.

In the elderly patient in the question, the high pressure of 147 mmHg is actually an acceptable range, and the low pressure is 68 mmHg. However, if the patient has uncomfortable symptoms due to blood pressure problems, it is possible to consider lowering blood pressure under the guidance of a doctor. However, care must be taken not to let the low pressure go too low, and it is best not to lower the low pressure below the lower limit of 60mmHg.

On the other hand, if this blood pressure level does not make the patient feel uncomfortable, this blood pressure level is also acceptable for the elderly over 75 years old, and it is not necessary to reduce it to the numerical standard, because the perfection of the value may make the patient have a hypotensive reaction, especially the cardiac perfusion problem caused by low blood pressure, which also requires special attention.

Of course, for many elderly patients with hypertension, if you can tolerate a relatively low blood pressure, such as a blood pressure of 130 80mmHg, and there is no hypotension reaction, you can also control your blood pressure more perfectly under the guidance of a doctor, which is also what some large medical research institutes have seen in recent years. But when it comes to each person, it needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

I hope Dr. Zhang's popular science will be helpful to you, and if you think it is good, you can also transfer it to your relatives and friends.

Be. Normal blood pressure range: 90 mmHg systolic blood pressure < 140 mmHg, 60 mmHg diastolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg.

Upper limit of normal blood pressure or prehypertension: systolic blood pressure 130 139 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure 85 89 mmHg.

Hypertension: An abnormally high level of arterial blood pressure above normal. Systolic blood pressure 140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure 90mmHg.

Abnormal. Diastolic blood pressure is low. Systolic blood pressure is at a critical level. Hypotension may be present.

145 is very good for an elderly person at this age, as long as there are no symptoms of dizziness, it is not high. Normal blood pressure 130 80

It is important to measure blood pressure at low pressure:

120 80 is normal.

140 90 is the limit of hypertension.

Less than 100 out of 60 is hypotensive.

Female children are lower.

In a patient with a blood pressure < 90 to 60 mmHg, the possibility of shock should be considered.

For healthy elderly women who do not have hypertension, if there are no symptoms of low blood pressure such as dizziness, syncope, and palpitation, it can be considered normal. However, because hypotension can cause hypoperfusion of tissues and organs, especially the blood supply to important organs such as the heart, brain, and kidneys, if the blood pressure value is repeatedly low, it is recommended to see a cardiovascular department.

Normal blood pressure: systolic blood pressure < 130 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure < 85 mmHg, China adopts the 1999 World Health Organization and World Hypertension Alliance on the diagnosis and grading of hypertension: ideal blood pressure:

Systolic blood pressure < 120 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure < 80 mmHg; High limit of normal: systolic blood pressure 130-139 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 85-89 mmHg; Stage 1 hypertension: systolic blood pressure 140-159 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 90-99 mmHg (subgroup:

borderline hypertension, systolic blood pressure 140-149 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 90-94 mmHg); Stage 2 hypertension: systolic blood pressure 160-179 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 100-109 mmHg; Stage 3 hypertension: systolic blood pressure 180, diastolic blood pressure 110 mmHg; Isolated systolic hypertension systolic blood pressure 140 mmHg (subgroup:

Borderline systolic hypertension with systolic blood pressure 140-149 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg. When systolic and diastolic blood pressure are graded, the higher level is used as the criterion.
