Brief Summary: This study aims to evaluate the effect of intensive treatment (a target clinic based systolic blood pressure(BP) \<120mmHg) on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure, as well as the effect on White-coat uncontrolled hypertension and masked uncontrolled hypertension, compared with standard treatment (a target clinic based systolic BP \<140mmHg).
Detailed Description: This study aims to evaluate the effect of intensive treatment (a target clinic based systolic BP \<120mmHg) on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure, as well as the effect on White-coat uncontrolled hypertension and masked uncontrolled hypertension, compared with standard treatment (a target clinic based systolic BP \<140mmHg). The population of this study is from an ongoing multi-centre open label clinical trial which evaluated the effect of intensive systolic hypertension treatment on major cardiac events (ESPRIT study). ESPRIT study enrolled patients with high risk of cardiovascular disease, who were aged≥50 years old with a systolic BP≥130 mmHg, and assigned them randomly to intense hypertension group (a target clinic based systolic BP \<120mmHg) or standard hypertension group (a target clinic based systolic BP \<140mmHg), with a 3-year follow-up, evaluating the effect of intense hypertension treatment on major cardiac events. From those eligible ones for the trial, the investigators plan to select 710 to participate in this study. During the 2-3 years of follow-up of the main trial, the participants will be monitored using 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, meanwhile one-week home blood pressure monitoring will also be conducted. The two monitoring approaches will be performed twice; once every half year, based on which this study will evaluate the effect of intensive hypertension treatment on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure, as well as the effect on White-coat uncontrolled hypertension and masked uncontrolled hypertension.
