摘要
Objective: To examine the relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) use and gait performance in older adults. Design: Cross-sectional survey. Setting: Community. Participants: A total of 281 community-dwelling older adults with hypertension enrolled in an aging study. Measurements: Quantitative variables used to define gait performance included velocity (cm/s), stride length (cm), swing time (s), stride length variability (SD), and swing time variability (SD). Results: There were 72 hypertensive participants on ACEIs and 209 were on other antihypertensive medications. Linear regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, and potential confounders revealed that hypertensive participants on an ACEI walked 7.29 cm/s slower (P = .016) and stride length was 6.86 cm shorter (P = .006) compared with those not on ACEIs. There were no significant differences on the other gait variables examined. Conclusion: ACEI use was associated with worse gait performance in elderly hypertensives. Biological mechanisms need to be explored, and clinicians should consider monitoring gait speed in hypertensive patients on ACEIs.
