Résumé
The HOT study (hypertension-optimal treatment) is an international clinical study on primary prevention of cardiovascular events in 19,193 hypertensive patients worldwide. It aims at the recognition of the optimal diastolic blood pressure value (< 90, < 85 or < 80 mmHg?) in order to maximize the possible benefit of an antihypertensive therapy. In addition, the HOT study investigates whether low doses of aspirin (75 mg/day) are able to reduce the occurrence of severe cardiovascular events. In Switzerland a total of 797 patients have been enrolled in the study. Antihypertensive therapy was initiated with felodipine = Plendil (5 mg/day). This vasoelective calcium antagonist could reduce diastolic blood pressure values to < 90 or < 80 mg/Hg, respectively, in one of two or one of three patients within the first three months. In nine or six patients, respectively out of ten a reduction of diastolic blood pressure values to < 90 or < 80 mmHg was reached within one year by combination of felodipine with other antihypertensive drugs (ACE inhibitors, beta blockers and diuretics).
