What is the danger of low pressure below 60 in the elderly

Low pressure below 60 in the elderly, i.e., low pressure below 60 mmHg in the elderly, will produce a certain degree of harm to the elderly organism, especially will have a significant impact on the important organs of the elderly. For example, a decrease in coronary perfusion can easily induce angina pectoris and myocardial infarction; a decrease in cerebral blood perfusion can cause dizziness, numbness of limbs and cerebral thrombosis in serious cases; a decrease in renal perfusion pressure can lead to different degrees of kidney damage and reduced urine output. The causes should be promptly identified and appropriate measures should be taken to correct hypotension.1. Insufficient cerebrovascular blood supply: low pressure below 60 mmHg in the elderly will result in insufficient cerebrovascular perfusion, and symptoms such as dizziness, nausea and vomiting may occur. For a long time, heavy cases may form cerebral thrombosis, the symptoms of numbness and hemiplegia of the limbs, affecting the normal life of the elderly and endangering their lives; 2, insufficient coronary artery blood supply: low pressure below 60 mmHg in the elderly, resulting in insufficient coronary artery blood supply, can appear panic, chest tightness, angina and other conditions. Long-term, serious myocardial infarction, serious arrhythmia, etc., endangering the lives of the elderly; 3, inadequate blood perfusion of the kidney vessels: low pressure in the elderly below 60mmHg, but also to the kidneys caused by inadequate perfusion of blood to the kidneys, affecting the kidney function, may appear pain in the kidney area, oliguria and other performance. In serious cases, kidney failure may occur, and the situation is more critical; 4. Other effects: Patients may have decreased body resistance, weakness, depression, indigestion and other manifestations. If the blood pressure is persistently too low or the position is suddenly changed and the blood pressure drops suddenly, the elderly may suffer from shock. If the elderly have previous primary diseases and some underlying diseases in the heart, kidney, liver, cranial and other important organs, they need to actively take comprehensive treatment measures, and should develop good diet and rest habits, reasonable nutrition, combine work and rest, and keep a relaxed mood in daily life. Attention should be paid to the smooth and gentle change of position to prevent sudden and rapid change of position, which may lead to the occurrence of hypotensive emergencies.
