Description

Qiwei Shen and co-authors ask whether steady blood pressure in the first day of intensive care links to survival, in a study from 2025. They use a measure called time in target range. It tracks how long a patient's top blood pressure number stays in a set band during care.

The team drew records from a large United States hospital database and checked the results in a second broad database. They counted just over forty thousand patients in the main study. More time in the target band linked to lower death rates in hospital. It also linked to fewer dangerous heart rhythm events. Part of that link ran through the rhythm events. The findings support close, steady control of blood pressure in very ill patients.
