Hypertension ____عبد الامير Flashcards
……………………
- they found that pt with BP 135/85 they have double risk of CVD
- pt with BP 155/95 they have 4 risk of CVD
- pt with BP 175/105 they have 8 risk of CVD
normal BP ?
LOWER than 120/80
elavated BP?
systolic 120or 129 but diastloic is80-89
hypertension pressure Stage 1 ?
S —(140-159 )
D—-(90-99)
hypertension pressure Stage 2 ?
S _____≥160 mm Hg
D_____≥100 mm Hg
what’re the types of the hypertension ?
1- Essential hypertension: 90 - 95 % means idopathic
2- secondary hypertension: 5 -10 % a- renal diseases. b- endocrinal causes. c- pregnancy related. d- drugs . e- coarctation of aorta. f- others.
what’s the Office BP Measurement ?
_auscultatory method
_seated quietly for 5 minutes in a chair
_feet on the floor,
_arm supported at heart level.
_Appropriate-sized cuff
_At least two measurements should be made
what’re CVD Risk Factors ?
-Hypertension*
-Cigarette smoking
-Obesity* (BMI >30 kg/m2)
-Physical inactivity
-Dyslipidemia*
-Diabetes mellitus*
-Microalbuminuria or estimated GFR <60 ml/min
-Age (older than 55 for men, 65 for women)
-Family history of premature CVD
(men under age 55 or women under age 65)
what’re the presentation of the hypertension ?
1- headache
2- fatigue
3-unsteadness
4-virtigo
what’re the complication of the hypertension TOD ?
TOD IS traget organ damage
1- BRIAN : hemorrhagic & ischemic stroke,SAH,TIA
hypertensive encephalopathy.
2- HEART: CHF , MI , Angina pectoris ,arrhythmias
& dissecting aortic aneurysm.
3- KIDNEY: proteinuria , Azotemia,hematuria& CRF .
4- EYES: retinal hemorrhge , papilledema, CVT & CAT.
hypertension might play an important role in the development of cataract
\+CHF Congestive heart failure \+Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) \+Transient ischemic attack TIA \+Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) \+Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) \+Azotemia is a medical condition characterized by abnormally high levels of nitrogen-containing compounds (such as urea, creatinine, various body waste compounds, and other nitrogen-rich compounds) in the blood
what’re the secondary causes of the hypertension ?
مهم
1- Renovascular hypertension: severe HT, recurrent flash pulmonary odema& azotemia.
2- primary aldosteronism: polyuria ,unprovoked hypokalemia & generalized weakness.
3- pheochromocytoma : sudden paroxysms , severe HT ,anxiety ,sweating ,orthostatic changes& neurocutaneous lesions .
4- Cushing Syndrom: weight gain , mood changes ,Diabetes , Striae & proximal weakness.
5- Sleep Apnea Syndrome: nocturnal snoring , day time sleepness ,fatigue & poor concentration.
what’s the HYPERTENSIVE CRISIS ?
- when BP is higher than 130
- eyes__Fundoscopy showed hemorrhge ,exudate or papillodema
- heart___ Lt ventricular hypertrophy , congestive heart faliure
- kidney___ Azotemia , oliguria or protienuria
- GIT ___nausia & vomiting
- Hematological —- microangiopathic hemolytic anaemia
microcytic hemolytic anemia
How to approch to pt with hypertension ?
1- history
- about the previous blood pressure how it was and thearby
- search for enviromental , family risk factors
- any symptoms of the target organ as brain heart and perpheral arteries
- search for secondaries causes of HT as renal , drugs or endocrine
2- exam
- signs of secondary hypertension as cushing , pheocytchroma ,polycyctic disease or aortic corrcation
- signs of organs damage
retina , brain , heart , peripheral arteries - evidence of visceral obisty
- body wight , waist circumference , BMI
3- investigation
*Routine Tests
- Electrocardiogram ECG— for the heart
-Urinalysis ——-for the kidney
-Blood glucose, and hematocrit - kidney functions
Serum potassium, creatinine, or the corresponding estimated
GFR, and calcium
- Measurement of urinary albumin excretion or albumin/creatinine ratio
-Lipid profile, after 9- to 12-hour fast, that includes high-density—— to control the lipid
andlow-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides
Optional tests
- US abdomen to see if there is polycytic disease
- X-ray
- echo study.
-More extensive testing for identifiable causes is not generally indicated unless BP control is not achieved
what’re the investigations of the of HT ?

what’re the goal treatment of the hypertension ?
_Lifestyle modification
_Pharmacologic treatment
_Classification and management of BP for adults
_Follow up and monitoring
by
Treatment of :-
- All reversible risk factors
- Associated conditions
- Raised BP perse.
what’re the Benefits of Lowering BP?
- Heart failure >50%
- Stroke incidence 40%-35%- Myocardial infarction 20-25%
