17
Q

organs most at risk due to hypertension

A
  • heart
  • arteries
  • brain
  • kidney
18
Q

pathogenesis of left ventricular hypertrophy

A
  • increased afterload
  • increased LV work
  • hypertrophy of LV myocytes
  • concentric LV hypertrophy with increased stiffness
19
Q

left ventricular hypertrophy on the EKG

A
  • taller R waves in leftward leads (I, AVL, V6)
  • deeper S waves in rightward leads (V1, V3)
  • downsloping ST depression
  • T wave inversions
20
Q

S wave in V3 and R in AVL measurement in left ventricular hypertrophy

A

> 20 mm (women)

> 28 mm (men)

24
Q

HTN effects on large-medium arteries

A
  • accelerated atherosclerosis
25
Q

complications of accelerated atherosclerosis

A
  • MI
  • stroke/brain infarct
  • aortic aneurysm
26
Q

Chronic HTN effects on microvasculature - pathology

A
  • thickened vessel wall

- stenotic lumen

27
Q

pathogenesis of chronic HTN in small arteries

A
  • adapt
  • wall thickens with increased elastin and increased collagen
  • benign arteriosclerosis
28
Q

pathogenesis of chronic HTN in arteriole

A
  • adapt +/- injury
  • wall thickened with increased collagen and plasma proteins
  • benign arteriolosclerosis
  • hyaline arteriolosclerosis
29
Q

complications of stenotic lumen

A
  • ischemia to tissues downstream
30
Q

organs affected by downstream ischemia

A
  • kidney (renal failure) -> benign nephrosclerosis

- retina

31
Q

pathology of severe, acute htn affects on microvasculature

A
  • thickened vessel wall

- stenotic lumen

32
Q

pathogenesis of severe, acute htn in small arteries and arterioles

A
  • adapt

- endothelial injury

33
Q

adaption of small arteries and arterioles in severe, acute htn

A
  • wall thickens with increased layers of smooth muscle cells

= onion skinning

34
Q

endothelial injury of small arteries and arterioles in severe, acute htn

A
  • necrotic wall thickened with fibrinoid necrosis
  • insudated plasma proteins
  • +/- thrombus

A
  • continuous, graded relationship
39
