Evaluation of Cardiac Status and Study of Co - Existing Cardiovascular Risk Factors of Isolated Systolic Hypertension in Elderly Population
Abstract: Background: The incidence of Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) in has dramatically increased over the last ten years, with overweight and obesity playing a major role. Despite the fact that it's yet unclear if ISH and a higher risk of cardiovascular death (CVD) are related. Objectives: To study of co - existing cardiovascular risk factors of isolated systolic hypertension in elderly population. Methods: This was 18 month hospital based cross sectional study conducted by Dept. of Medicine; Dr. KNS Memorial Institute of Medical Science, barabanki. One hundred patients, all 60 years and above were included. Each one of these people had their isolated systolic blood pressure checked. i. e. (SBP > 140 mmHg and DBP
