Abstract

Considering the increasing amount of elderly people in Russia and in the world, an active study of arterial hypertension in this group is an actual and clinically demanded task. The strategic direction defining treatment tactic in such patients, especially over 80 years old, is the determination of their functional status and of the presence of frailty syndrome, which is not synonymous with comorbidity and is not an obligatory early aging companion, but specifies the need for a personalized approach in the treatment of hypertension, even the complete abolition of antihypertensive drugs if needed. The review presents data on the prevalence and clinical features of hypertension in the older age group and presents a digest of the latest European and Russian clinical guidelines about this topic. Special attention is paid to “fragile” patients from the point of view of evidence-based medicine. The influence of different combinations of antihypertensive drugs on cardiovascular events, mortality and cognitive potential is also explained.Aim: To evaluate the functional, cognitive and emotional state of long-livers for determining the amount of necessary assistance from social services and medical personnel.
