CVD 3 Flashcards
normal SBP and DBP
SBP: < 120
DBP: < 80
elevated SBP and DBP
SBP: 120-129
DBP: < 80
stage 1 HTN SBP and DBP
SBP: 130-139
DBP: 80-89
stage 2 HTN SBP and DBP
SBP: > = 140
DBP: > = 90
HTN causes
increased cardiovascular __ and __
increased __
increased chronic __ disease and end stage __ disease
HTN causes
increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality
increased cardiovasvular accidents (CVA, stroke)
increased chronic kidney disease and end stage kidney disease
blood pressure =
vascular resistance * cardiac output
vasoconstriction is caused by
catecholamines
angiotensin II
vasopressin
vasodilation is caused by
nitric oxide
ANP
RAAS system steps
- kidney senses low BP, secretes renin
- liver secretes angiotensignogen which becomes angiotensin
- acts on adrenal gland to increase aldosterone secretion –> increased sodium and water retention –> increased BP
- also decreased GFR and urine output via vasoconstriction
RAAS: when kidney senses low BP, it secretes
RAAS: when kidney senses low BP, it secretes renin
RAAS: renin causes liver to secrete __ which becomes __
RAAS: renin causes liver to secrete angiotensinogen which becomes angiotensin
RAAS: angiotensin acts on __ to increase __ secretion –> increases __ and __ retention –> increases __
RAAS: angiotensin acts on adrenal gland to increase aldosterone secretion –> increases sodium and water retention –> increases BP
RAAS: angiotensin also decreases __ and __ ouput via __
RAAS: angiotensin also decreases GFR and urine ouput via vasoconstriction
SNS system
- Cardiac Output via heart
- Catecholamines via Adrenal Medulla
- Kidney releases Renin
- Blood vessel and increased Vascular resistance
3 mechanisms of hypertension
BP
RAAS
SNS
risk factors for hypertension
- age
- obesity
- family Hx
- reduced nephron number
- excessive alcohol
- physical inactivity
- high SODIUM diet
primary = __ HTN
secondary = __ HTN
primary = essential HTN
secondary = identifiable HTN
primary HTN is __% of cases
primary HTN is 95% of cases
primary HTN has __ and __ causes
primary HTN has genetic and environmental causes
