Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec><jats:title>Background</jats:title><jats:p>A systematic analysis of concomitant arterial hypertension in COVID‐19 patients and the impact of angiotensin‐converting‐enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) have not been studied in a large multicentre cohort yet. We conducted a subanalysis from the international HOPE Registry (<jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="https://hopeprojectmd.com">https://hopeprojectmd.com</jats:ext-link>, NCT04334291) comparing COVID‐19 in presence and absence of arterial hypertension.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods</jats:title><jats:p>Out of 5837 COVID‐19 patients, 2850 (48.8%) patients had the diagnosis arterial hypertension. 1978/2813 (70.3%) patients were already treated with ACEI or ARBs. The clinical outcome of the present subanalysis included all‐cause mortality over 40 days of follow‐up.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>Patients with arterial hypertension suffered significantly more from different complications including respiratory insufficiency (60.8% vs 39.5%), heart failure (9.9% vs 3.1%), acute kidney injury (25.3% vs 7.3%), pneumonia (90.6% vs 86%), sepsis (14.7% vs 7.5%), and bleeding events (3.6% vs 1.6%). The mortality rate was 29.6% in patients with concomitant arterial hypertension and 11.3% without arterial hypertension (<jats:italic>P</jats:italic> < .001). Invasive and non‐invasive respiratory supports were significantly more required in presence of arterial hypertension as compared without it.</jats:p><jats:p>In the multivariate cox regression analysis, while age≥65, benzodiazepine, antidepressant at admission, elevated LDH or creatinine, respiratory insufficiency and sepsis might be a positive independent predictors of mortality, antiviral drugs, interferon treatment, ACEI or ARBs at discharge or oral anticoagulation at discharge might be an independent negative predictor of the mortality.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>The mortality rate and in‐hospital complications might be increased in COVID‐19 patients with a concomitant history of arterial hypertension. The history of ACEI or ARBs treatments does not seem to impact the outcome of these patients.</jats:p></jats:sec>
