Hypertension is a world-wide and most common chronic disease. Hypertension is the important factor that causes heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, nephropathy. Blood pressure of patients with hypertension fluctuates differently between day and night. Blood pressure in the morning raises rapidly, which is called morning blood pressure surge, associated with damage of target organs and cardiovascular outcome event, particularly occurring in aged patients with hypertension. Because of high morbidity, low awareness rate, low rate of treatment and low control rate, hypertension leads to high disability rate and fatality rate, which potentially harm aged people, seriously threaten health of aged people and influence quality of their life. With aging progress of population accelerates, there is an ascending trend for aged patients with hypertension. Paying more attention to morning blood pressure surge and taking specific and comprehensive actions are key significance for reduction of target organ damage and cardiovascular disease. At present, the association study that harm of morning blood pressure surge to target organs is paid more attention, and it is more and more outstanding for instructing function of clinic. The paper reviews epidemiology, definition as well as identification, physiopathologic mechanism, risk factors, damage of target organs as well as manage strategy and research progress, etc...
