[Results of the secondary prevention of arterial hypertension. Study Group of the All-Union Collective Program for the Prevention of Arterial Hypertension (AUCPPAH)].
The paper presents the results of the study of medical impact of AUCPAHP. The study was performed in an organized population comprising 43197 males aged 40-54 years, including an intervention group of 23378 subjects and a control group of 19819. The active, mainly secondary prevention of arterial hypertension in 12 collaborative centres during 3-5 years has caused a decrease in overall mortality in the intervention group by 17.3% compared with that in the control group, in stroke mortality by 52.4% and non-fatal MI morbidity by 23.9%. CHD mortality has turned out to be practically equal in the two groups.
