Résumé
The focus of antihypertensive therapy in older adults should be on lowering the systolic blood pressure (SBP) to the patient's "optimal" benefit-based target goal. Applying benefit-based therapy to the majority of adults aged 65 years or older who are at high cardiovascular disease or cognitive impairment risk favors an SBP goal of less than 130 mm Hg, and for some, a goal of 120 mm Hg may be considered.
