Summary points
(Ramsay LE et al. BMJ 1999: 319: 630-635)
Use non-pharmacological measures in all hypertensive and borderline hypertensive people
Initiate antihypertensive drug treatment in people with sustained systolic blood pressure 160 mm Hg or sustained diastolic blood pressure 100 mm Hg
Decide on treatment in people with sustained systolic blood pressure according to the presence or absence of:
target organ damage, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or a 10 year coronary heart disease risk of 15% according to the Joint British Societies coronary heart disease risk assessment programme or risk chart
Good evidence from trials shows that several lifestyle modifications lower blood pressure:
• weight reduction to achieve an ideal body weight via reduced fat and total calorie intake;
• regular physical exercise designed to improve fitness; this should be predominantly dynamic (brisk walking, for example) rather than isometric (weight training);
• limiting alcohol consumption to <21 units per week for men and <14 units per week for women;
• reduced use of salt when preparing food and elimination of excessively salty foods from the diet;
• increased consumption of fruit and vegetables.
Lifestyle modifications that further reduce cardiovascular disease risk are:
stopping smoking; reducing total intake of saturated fat,
replacing it with PUFA or MUFA fats;increased intake of oily fish;
regular physical exercise.
Non-pharmacological advice should be offered to all hypertensive people and those with a strong family history of hypertension.
Such measures may obviate the need for drug treatment or reduce the dose or number of drugsrequired to control blood pressure.
When drug treatment has to be introduced more quickly, non-pharmacological measures should be instituted in parallel with drug treatment.
