  • Title: Treatment of hypertensive emergencies in the elderly.
    Author: Vidt DG.
    Journal: Geriatrics; 1984 Mar; 39(3):77-9, 83. PubMed ID: 6698402.
    Abstract:
    Although the diminishing number of hypertensive emergencies is gratifying, it is nevertheless unfortunate that a significant proportion of hypertensive patients of all ages still are not receiving effective long-term treatment. Hypertensive emergencies continue to threaten many patients. Early recognition and aggressive management provide the best means to reduce morbidity and mortality in many hypertensive emergencies.
