Problem: Two of your patients have been prescribed new blood pressure medications. They both have hypertension and are trying to reduce their blood pressure over time. The patients check in each day and have their systolic blood pressure recorded. The following are the results:
Patient A: 150, 147, 144, 141, 138
Patient B: 160, 156, 152, 148, 144
Based on this information alone, which patient is currently doing the best? Which blood pressure medication seems to be the most effective? Are there some numbers you can point to to support your answer?
