What did last 10000 patients teach us?
The Outpatient Hypertension Clinic in Split, Croatia, established in 1975, published its first operative studies more than 20 (Acta Med Salin 1980 ; 9:33-44), and then 10 years ago (Liječ Vjesn 1993 ; 115:30-4). In the following 10 year period (1993-2003) 10, 000 patient data were analyzed from the protocols. In this period the female sex was preponderant (50.3% vs. earlier 33.7% ; p<0.0001), the majority of our patients were still overweight (66.0% vs. earlier 66.1 ; p>0.05), and had grade I/II hypertension (57.2% vs. 58.0% ; p>0.05). The eye-ground changes in most current patients were either nonexistent (42.9%) or minimal (up to grade II 56.8% of the examinees). The significant, grade III/IV changes marginally increased in the last 10 years (0.75% vs. 0.65% ; p=0.51). The ECG tracings were mostly normal (61.5 %), and LVH prevalence decreased (14.5% vs. 19.9% ; p<0.0001). Essential hypertension is still by far the most prevalent moiety (96.0% vs. 96.3% ; p=0.71), and the curable forms of secondary hypertension (less than 1/5 of all the secondary forms) remain rare.
