| Περιγραφή: | Background: Black adults in the U.S. have higher rates of hypertension compared to White adults, contributing to disparities in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Quantifying the health and economic impact of population-wide systolic blood pressure (SBP) reductions may inform the development of cost-effective nonpharmacologic strategies to prevent hypertension and CVD. Methods: We used the CVD Policy Model, a validated simulation of blood pressure (BP) management and CVD risk, to estimate 10-year health and economic outcomes associated with population-wide, sustained SBP reductions of 2 to 10 mmHg among Black adults without hypertension. For comparison, we estimated BP, CVD, and economic outcomes associated with observed BP trajectories in a cohort derived from Jackson Heart Study participants without hypertension, defined as SBP Results: Among 10,000 Black adults (mean age 47 years) without hypertension, the observed BP trajectories projected that 4,624 adults would develop hypertension, and 416 CVD events would occur over 10 years. Sustained SBP reductions of 2 to 10 mmHg were projected to prevent 62% to 90% of hypertension cases and avert 5% to 22% of CVD events over 10 years ( Table ). For example, a sustained 6-mmHg SBP reduction was projected to prevent 88% of hypertension cases (4,100 cases) and avert 15% of CVD events (62 events) over 10 years. A 6-mmHg SBP reduction would save $8.1 million in healthcare costs and would be cost-effective if costing ≤$1,880 per person per year. Extrapolated to the 11.5 million Black adults without hypertension in the US, a 6-mmHg SBP reduction could prevent 292,988 hypertension cases and 3,385 CVD events annually, saving $589 million in healthcare costs. Conclusion: Sustained, population-wide SBP reductions of 2 to 10 mmHg in Black adults without hypertension could reduce hypertension incidence, CVD events, and healthcare spending and are potentially cost-effective. |
