Hypertension and Stroke: Risk may be increased by high blood pressure

Research indicates Hypertension and Stroke that a prolonged high systolic blood pressure is associated with a higher risk of stroke, particularly brain hemorrhages and ischemia. Prevention requires early diagnosis and intervention.

Black patients faced a 20% greater risk of ischemic stroke and a 67% higher risk of intracerebral haemorrhage than white patients. In contrast, Hispanic patients had a 281% increased risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage, but no elevated risk for other types of stroke compared to white patients.

In order to optimize people’s blood pressure and lower their risk of suffering a stroke, health care systems, providers, and insurers must inform, encourage, and support their patients to undertake at-home blood pressure monitoring.”
