Questions to the JNC 8 Panel • At what level should you treat BP? • To what level should it be treated? • How do you do that?
Target Audience for JNC 8 “Statements and recommendations for [BP] treatment based on a systematic review of the literature to meet user needs, especially the needs of the primary care clinician.” James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
Focus of the Recommendations • Age • Diabetic • Black/nonblack • Chronic kidney disease (CKD)
Age Recommendations, JNC 2014 • 18 years old and younger: Not considered • 30 years old and younger: We have little to no data • 30 to 59 years old: In the general population younger than 60 years, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at a DBP of 90 mm Hg and treat to a goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. Strong Recommendation: Grade A • 60 years old: In the general population aged 60 years or older, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at an SBP of 150 mm Hg or higher or a DBP of 90 mm Hg or higher and treat to a goal SBP lower than 150 mm Hg and goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. Strong Recommendation: Grade A • 80 years old: Based on HYVET James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
JNC Panel Recommendation for Patients With Diabetes and Hypertension • In the population aged18 years and older with diabetes, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at an SBP of 140 mm Hg or a DBP of 90 mm Hg and treat to a goal of SBP lower than 140 mm Hg and goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. Expert Opinion: Grade E James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
ACCORD Mean Number of Medications Prescribed ACCORD Study Group. N Engl J Med. 2010;362:1575-1585.[6]
JNC Panel Recommendation for Patients With CKD • In the population aged 18 years with CKD, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at an SBP of 140 mm Hg or a DBP of 90 mm Hg and treat to goal of an SBP lower than 140 mm Hg and a goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. Expert Opinion: Grade E James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
JNC Recommendation for Nonblack Patients • In the general nonblack population, including those with diabetes, initial antihypertensive treatment should include • Thiazide-type diuretic • Calcium channel blocker (CCB) • Angiotensin-concerting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor • Angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) • Moderate Recommendation: Grade B James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
ALLHAT Outcomes in Hypertensive Black Patients Treated With Chlorthalidone, Amlodipine, and Lisinopril Wright JT, et al. JAMA. 2005;293(13):1595-1608.[17]
JNC Recommendation for Black Patients • In the general black population, including those with diabetes, initial antihypertensive treatment should include • Thiazide-type diuretic • CCB • For the general black population: • Moderate Recommendation: Grade B • For black patients with diabetes: • Weak Recommendation: Grade C James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
Recommendations for Hypertension Management • Recommendation 1: In the general population aged 60 years, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at systolic BP (SBP)150 mm Hg or diastolic BP (DBP) 90 mm Hg and treat to a goal SBP lower than 150 mm Hg and goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. (Strong Recommendation : Grade A) Corollary Recommendation: In the general population aged 60 years, if pharmacologic treatment for high BP results in lower achieved SBP (eg, <140 mm Hg) and treatment is well tolerated and without adverse effects on health or quality of life, treatment does not need to be adjusted. (Expert Opinion : Grade E) • Recommendation 2: In the general population younger than 60 years, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at DBP 90 mm Hg and treat to a goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. (For ages 30 to 59 years, Strong Recommendation : Grade A; for ages 18 to 29 years, Expert Opinion: Grade E) • Recommendation 3: In the general population younger than 60 years, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at SBP to 140 mm Hg and treat to a goal SBP lower than 140 mm Hg. (Expert Opinion : Grade E) • Recommendation 4: In the population aged 18 years with CKD, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at SBP 140 mm Hg or DBP 90 mm Hg and treat to goal SBP lower than 140 mm Hg and goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. (Expert Opinion: Grade E) • Recommendation 5: In the population aged 18 years with diabetes, initiate pharmacologic treatment to lower BP at SBP 140 mm Hg or DBP 90 mm Hg and treat to a goal SBP lower than 140 mm Hg and goal DBP lower than 90 mm Hg. (Expert Opinion: Grade E) James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
Recommendations for Hypertension Management (cont) • Recommendation 6: In the general nonblack population, including those with diabetes, initial antihypertensive treatment should include a thiazide-type diuretic, CCB, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). (Moderate Recommendation: Grade B) • Recommendation 7: In the general black population, including those with diabetes, initial antihypertensive treatment should include a thiazide-type diuretic or CCB. (For general black population, Moderate Recommendation: Grade B; for black patients with diabetes, Weak Recommendation : Grade C) • Recommendation 8: In the population aged 18 years with CKD, initial (or add-on) antihypertensive treatment should include an ACEI or ARB to improve kidney outcomes. This applies to all patients with CKD with hypertension regardless of race or diabetes status. (Moderate Recommendation: Grade B) • Recommendation 9:The main objective of hypertension treatment is to attain and maintain goal BP. If goal BP is not reached within a month of treatment,increase the dose of the initial drug, or add a second drug from one of the classes in recommendation 6 (thiazide-type diuretic, CCB, ACEI, or ARB). The clinician should continue to assess BP and adjust the treatment regimen until goal BP is reached. If goal BP cannot be reached with 2 drugs, add and titrate a third drug from the list provided. Do not use an ACEI and an ARB together in the same patient. If goal BP cannot be reached using only the drugs in recommendation 6 because of a contraindication or the need to use more than 3 drugs to reach goal BP, antihypertensive drugs from other classes can be used. Referral to a hypertension specialist may be indicated for patients in whom goal BP cannot be attained using the above strategy or for the management of complicated patients for who additional clinical consultation is needed. (Expert Opinion : Grade E) James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1]
JNC Management Guideline Algorithm Adult aged 18 years and older who have hypertension Implement lifestyle interventions (continue throughout management) Set BP goal and initiate BP-lowering medication on the basis of age, diabetes status, and CKD General population (no diabetes or CKD) Diabetes or CKD present All ages/with CKD/ with or without diabetes Age ≥ 60 years Age < 60 years All ages/with diabetes/no CKD BP goal SBP < 150 mm Hg DBP < 90 mm Hg BP goal SBP < 140 mm Hg DBP < 90 mm Hg BP goal SBP < 140 mm Hg DBP < 90 mm Hg BP goal SBP < 140 mm Hg DBP < 90 mm Hg All races Nonblack Black Initiate thiazide-type diuretic or ACEI or ARB or CCB, alone or in combination Initiate thiazide-type diuretic or CCB, alone or in combination Initiate thiazide-type diuretic or CCB, alone or in combination Select a drug treatment titration strategy Maximize first medication before adding second or Add second medication before reaching maximum dose of first medication or Start with 2 medication classes separately or as fixed-done combination At goal BP? No Reinforce medication and lifestyle adherence For strategies A and B, add and titrate thiazide-type diuretic or ACEI or ARB or CCB (use medication class not previously selected and avoid combined use of ACEI and ARB). For strategy C, titrate doses of initial medications to maximum. At goal BP? No Yes Reinforce medication and lifestyle adherence Add and titrate thiazide-type diuretic or ACEI or ARB or CCB (use medication class not previously selected and avoid combined use of ACEI and ARB). At goal BP? No Reinforce medication and lifestyle adherence Add additional medication class (eg, beta-blocker, aldosterone antagonist, or others) and/or refer to physician with expertise in hypertension management. At goal BP? James PA, et al. JAMA. 2014;311:507-520.[1] Continue current treatment and monitoring

Strategies for Reaching BP Goal Start 1 drug, titrate to maximum dose, and then add a second drug Start 1 drug and then add a second drug before achieving maximum dose of the initial drug Begin with 2 drugs at the same time either as 2 separate pills or as a single pill combination James PA, et al.
