Implication

Prospective cohort analysis reveals supine hypertension raises mortality and cardiovascular disease risk in older adults, suggesting urgent need for monitoring.

Key Points

Supine hypertension significantly raises the risk of cardiovascular disease events and mortality in older adults.
Among participants without seated hypertension, supine hypertension linked to 32% higher heart failure risk and 33% higher stroke risk.
Cohort analysis from the Cardiovascular Health Study included 4,223 older adults monitored over a median of 14.1 years.
Findings emphasize the importance of assessing and addressing supine hypertension even when seated hypertension is not present.
