Abstract:Objective To determine the clinical profile and blood pressure (BP) control rates of anticoagulated patients with hypertension and atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods Patients with non-valvular AF aged 18 or older were enrolled from January to June 2017 and received vitamin K antagonist anticoagulation for at least 12 months. According to hypertension, they were divided into AF with hypertension group and AF without hypertension group. Before the patients were enrolled, CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASC and HAS-BLED scores were performed, and INR values were tested. The control of blood pressure after treatment was analyzed. Results The age, CHADS2 score, CHA2DS2-VASC score, HAS-BLED score, body mass index, incidence of dyslipidemia and incidence of diabetes mellitus in AF with hypertension group were higher than those in AF without hypertension group (P < 0.05). BP control rate increased with CHADS2 score 1, 2, 3 and 4 (P < 0.05). BP control rate of hypertension patients with AF in the age groups of 0-40, >40-50, >50-60, >60-70, >70-80 and >80-100 years showed an increasing trend (P < 0.05). Conclusions More than 75% of hypertensive patients with AF achieve BP goals, and this rate is higher in elderly. More than two-thirds of patients were on combined therapy. BP control is better in AF patients than that in general hypertensive population.
