Predictive value of 8-year blood pressure measures in intracerebral haemorrhage risk over 5 years.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The relationships between long-term blood pressure (BP) measures and intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), as well as their predictive ability on ICH, are unclear. In this study, we aim to investigate the independent associations of multiple BP measures with subsequent 5-year ICH risk, as well as the incremental value of these measures over a single-point BP measurement in ICH risk prediction.

Methods and results

We included 12 398 participants from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) who completed three surveys every 4-5 years. The following long-term BP measures were calculated: mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, average real variability, and cumulative BP exposure (cumBP). Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the associations
