67
Q

HTN in pregnancy preferred drugs:

A

labetalol, methyldopa, diltiazem

68
Q

Chronic HTN in pregnancy:

A

> 140/90 before 20 weeks gestation, pre-pregnancy, or 12 weeks post-pregnancy

69
Q

Gestational HTN/Pregnancy-induced HTN:

A

> 140/90 after 20 weeks gestation w/o proteinuria, which resolves 12 weeks post-pregnancy

70
Q

Preeclampsia in pregnancy:

A

> 140/90 after 20 weeks gestation w/ proteinuria

  • MC: nulliparious women, multiple fetuses, fam hx, or h/o HTN or renal dz
  • definitive tx: delivery
  • restrict activity, bed rest, and close monitoring
71
Q

Initial steps in Hypertensive ER:

A
  • loss of BP autoregulation

- abrupt rise in systemic vasculature resistance

72
Q

sodium nitroprusside use:

A

Most HT emergencies; caution w/ high ICP’s, azotemia, or in CKD

73
Q

nicardipine hydrochloride use:

A

Most HT emergencies, except acute HF; caution w/ coronary ischemia
- MC to drop BP in pt. w/ a cerebral bleed

74
Q

esmolol hydrochloride use:

A

aortic dissection; perioperative; cardiac cause; not acute HF

75
Q

nitroglycerin use:

A

Coronary ischemia or HF; venous vasodilator and great for fluid overload

76
Q

hydralazine hydrochloride use:

A

ecclampsia; MC w/ pregnancy; not a drip so not good for titration meds

77
Q

labetalol hydrochloride use:

A
  • Most HT emergencies, except acute HF

- BB w/ alpha-blockade

78
Q

Treatment guidelines in hypertensive emergency:

A

reduce MAP no more than 10-20% over minutes to 1 hour w/ IV meds; reduce 5-15% over 23 hrs in ICU under close monitoring of IV meds; over next days to weeks w/ oral meds for BP lowering

79
Q

Just placing these HTN emergent pts in a quiet room to rest caused:

A

BP to fall 20/10 in or more in 1/3rd of patients

80
Q

Hypertensive emergent w/u:

A
  • serum chemistries to detect AKI
  • UA to detect hematuria, proteinuria, RBC or RBC casts
  • CBC/peripheral blood smear if new onset
  • cardiac enzymes x 3
  • imaging: CXR; non-contrast CT
  • tox screen, preg screen, and endocrine testing
81
Q

Hypertensive emergent PE:

A
  • eyes: hemorrhages, exudates, papilledema
  • CV: CP, JVD, preipheral edema, crackles on auscultation, dyspnea, acute severe back pain
  • CNS: agitated, delirius, visual deficits, focal signs, sz; n/v if increased ICP
  • abdominal: masses or bruits
82
Q

Hypertensive emergency: ACS complication and tx

A
  • ACS, includes MI: Tx if SBP>160 or DBP>100 (reduce by 20-30%)
  • nitroglycerin and beta-blockers
  • C/I: thrombolytics if BP >185/100
83
Q

Hypertensive emergency: AHF complication and tx

A

*goal SBP <140mmHg
(1) loop diuretic IV often administered 1st if pt. volume overloaded
(2) nitroglycerin or nitroprusside to reduce afterload (vasodilators)
(never beta blocker-depresses cardiac contractility or hydralazine- increases cardiac work by vasodilating)

84
Q

Hypertensive emergency: sympathetic overactivity

A
  • cocaine toxicity, amphetamines
  • pheo
  • severe autonomic dysfx: cord injury; GBS
  • Beta-blocker alone is C/I
85
Q

ischemic stroke pt. recieving IV or intraarterial fibrinolysis w/ tpa tx goal:

A

BP goal <185 or <110

86
Q

acute ischemic stroke tx goal:

A

tx only if SBP >220 or DBP >120

- preferred drugs: labetalol or nicardipine

87
Q

acute aortic dissection tx goal:

A

rapidly lower SBP to 100-120 within 20 minutes

  • preferred tx: narcotic analgesics (morphine sulfate); BB (esmolol, labetalol); vasodilators (nitroprusside)
  • avoid BB w/ cardiac tamponade or aortic regurgitation
88
Q

SAH or ICH tx goal:

A

further bleeding risk vs. risk for ischemia

  • ~160mmHg
  • preferred nicardipine, esmolol, or labetalol
