Mild hypertension-diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 90-104 mmHg-has an important prognostic significance. Results of randomized clinical trials evaluating effects of antihypertensive treatment show that DBP at or above 100 mmHg always requires pharmacological intervention. Further evidence is accumulating which would probably further lower the threshold at which therapy would be considered mandatory.
