sure or II he is being treated
for low blood pressure or if he
had high blood pressure in the
past,
!, therefore, sent out queS-

asked them 10 give me the fig
ures on consecutive patients
that they saw in the Office and
in the hospital.
/ also collected a number Of
my own on consecutive unSe-
lected patients.
The results OF this investiga-
ton OF those who were con-
fessedly sick showed that about
so per cent Of people at the age
of 50 had blood pressure of
over 80.
This would indicate that high
blood pressure at the age Of
80 was more normal than alb
