Hypertension 2 Flashcards
How much PA to reduce BP in HTN?
- moderate PA of 30-60 min/d (4-7days/week)
- in addition to daily activities
Would you promote high intensity activities to reduce BP?
No
Tips for a patient to increase PA
- needs to be a GRADUAL increase to 30-60 min/d
For stage 1 HTN, how does resistant training impact BP?
Does not impact negatively
Nutrition Assessment HTN
- identify dietary factors and patterns (contributing to increase BP)
- evaluate need for weight control
- prioritise methods to meet DASH dietary goals
Nutrition Diagnosis HTN
- excessive energy intake
- excessive/inappropriate intake of fats
- excessive sodium intake
- inadequate calcium, fiber, potassium, or magnesium intake
- overweight/obesity
- food & nutrition knowledge deficit
- physical inactivity
Nutrition Intervention HTN
Comprehensive approach that addresses multiple lifestyle factors:
- DASH
- Weight loss
- Low Sodium
- Alcohol in moderation
- Potassium, calcium, magnesium
- Physical activity
- Smoking cessation
- Stress management
DASH diet rich in
F and V, legumes, low-fat dairy, high K, Mg, Ca, fibre; poor T fat, SDA and dietary cholesterol
Benefits of DASH diet according to studies
- average reduction of 5.5mmHg SBP and 3.0mmHg DBP
- further decrease in HTN subjects of 11.4mmHg/5.5mmHg
DASH stands for
Dietary
Approach to
STOP
Hypertension
For a 2,100 kcal diet, how much - sodium - potassium - calcium - magnesium - fiber in a DASH diet
- 2300 mg sodium
- 4700mg potassium
- 1250 mg calcium
- 500mg magnesium
- 30g fiber
What % of Total fat, saturated fat, protein, carb in a DASH diet
- Total fat = 27% (includes 6% sat fat)
- Protein = 18%
- Carbohydrate = 55%
Which diet is most beneficial:
HTN or Mediterranean
DASH
When would you recommend 1500mg Na to HTN patient?
If he has refractory HTN (= BP not controlled)
How much NA do you recommend to a HTN patient?
3000mg
DASH diet improves
BP
LDL
VLDL
TG
DASH diet implies increasing what? and reducing what?
Increasing: potassium, magnesium, calcium, fiber
Reducing saturated FA and sodium
A patient has a blood pressure of 130 (SBP) what is his risk?
HTN high risk
Antihypertensive drugs examples
- thiazide diuretics
- distal tubular diuretics
- angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors
- ANG2 receptor blockers
- calcium channel blockers
- beta blockers
- single pill combination
First drug to treat HTN in adult without complications
Thiazide/ thiazide-like diuretic
SBP and DBP goal in most HTN pt without diabetes?
SBP < 140 mmHg
DBP < 90 mmHg
SBP and DBP goal in HTN pt with diabetes?
SBP < 130 mmHg
DBP < 80 mmHg
SBP and DBP in high-risk HTN pt
SBP < 120 mmHg
Drug treatment considerations
- Location and drug metabolism and excretion
- Drug/nutrient interactions
- Drug/ drug interaction
- Nutritional status
- Physiological status
