What is beta-blockers and/or renin-angiotensin system inhibitors linked with?

2

Studies link beta-blockers and/or renin-angiotensin system inhibitors with 2 measures, most often 1-year mortality or readmission (1 study) and 1-year mortality (1).

1-year mortality or readmission

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Beta-blockers and/or renin-angiotensin system inhibitors are linked with a lower risk of 1-year mortality or readmission in humans (patients with hypotension, renal insufficiency or frailty; use at hospital discharge).

    “Even among the oldest patients, those over age 85, with hypotension, renal insufficiency or frailty, BB and/or RASi use at discharge was still associated with lower 1-year mortality or readmission.”
