[en] Management of blood pressure in adult CKD patients with and without diabètes. In HTA with CKD : individualization of the BP target! BP lowering is a critical component of preventing mortality, CKD progression and CV complications among those with CKD.
Evidence supports at least a goal BP <140/90 mmHg (Level I A/B).
The exception to this statement is if albuminuria is present, <130/80 mmHg can then be supported for CKD slower (Level II B). In oldest patients (>75) a BP target not lower than 140 mmHg must be proposed. ABPM should be used to test the 24h BP control
