SYSTEMIC HYPERTENSION S.Moradmand MD.
DEFINITION: A level of blood pressure that is associated With increased morbidity & mortality At some future time when compared With the whole population
BP Range mm Hg Category DBP <85 Normal BP 85 – 89 High normal BP 90 – 104 Mild hypertension 105 – 114 Moderate hypertension >115 Severe hypertension SBP when DBP <90mm Hg < 140 Normal BP 140 – 159 Borderline isolated systolic hypertension >160 Isolated systolic hypertension
CLASSIFICATION of BLOOD PRESSURE Category Systolic Diastolic Normal <130 <85 High Normal 130-139 85-89 Hypertension Stage 1(Mild) 140-159 90-99 Stage 2(Moderate) 160-179 100-109 Stage3(Severe) 180-209 110-119 Stage4(Very severe) >210 >120
Guidelines The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC VII) uses the following guidelines to define HTN in adults: (Brashers, 2006, p.1)
Pulse Pressure: Systolic minus Diastolic Presurre Mean BP = DP + 1/3 Pulse Pressure ( A good indicator of tissue perfusion)
Angiotensinosion Renin Renin Release B-blocker Angiotensin 1 Coverting Enzyme ACEI Angiotensin 2 Receptor Antagonist Angiotensinases Angiotensin3
Persistently raised Clinic BP yes Target organ damage high Start Treatment Home BP high Ambulatory BP Continue to monitor Clinic & home BP
Systolic Pressure • Stroke volume • The velocity of ejection • The elastic properties of aorta
Diastolic Pressure • Competency of aortic valve • The condition of arteries & their • ability to stretch & store energy • 3.Resistance of arterioles
Blood Pressure X Cardiac output Peripheral resistance local Renal Fluid volume humoral cardiac sympathethic contractility HR Dilator (beta) Constictor ( Alpha) Vasoconstrictors Angiotensin-endothelin Vasodilator Prostaglandins n
classification • Essential HTN • Renal HTN 92-94% Paranchymal Renovascular 3.Endocrine HTN Primary Hyperaldostronism Cushing’s syndrome Pheochromocytoma OCP
EssentialHTN Hereditery Enviromental Saltsensitivity High renine Low renine Nonmodulating Cell membrane defect Insulin resistance
Renin Release control • Blood volume , Renal perfusion • Na filtrated to Macula Densa • Sympathetic nervous system • Dietary Potassium
Low renin HTN • 20% of patients • Increased extracellular volme • On high sodium diet mild • degree of hyperaldostronism • 4. Increased sensitivity of adrenal • cortex to angiotensin II
Nonmodulating Essential HTN • Adrenal defect apposite to low renin • 25-30% of patients • Normal or high renin • Na intake dosen’t modulate adrenal • or renal response • 5. Corrected with ACEI
Cell Membrane Defect Abnormality in Na transport Calcium accumulation in Vascular smooth muscle cells Increased vascular reactivity to Vasoconstrictor agents
Calcium in HTN • Low ca++ intake increase BP • Ca++ blockers are effective antihypertensives • Salt loading increase NF • Digital sensitive Na-K ATPase lead to • intracellular calcium accumulation
Insulin Resistanse • Increased sympathetic activity • Vascular smooth muscle hypertrophy • 4. Increase cytosolic calcium
Natural hx of HTN 1.Progressive & lethal if untreated 2.Shortening of life 10-20 years 3.If untreated in 7-10 years develope 30 % athersclerosis, 50% CHF, Cardiomegaly ,CVA, Renal insufficeincy & retinopathy. 4.Morbid Cardiovascular events by as much as 20 fold
Hx., Ph.E., Lab. Tests • Uncovering secondary HTN • Establishing a pretreatment baseline • The factors that may influence therapy • Determining if target organ damage? • 5.Determining if other CAD risk factors?
Renal Paranchymal HTN • Volume expansion • Renin-Angiotensin system • Unidentified pressure agent • Fail to produce vasodilator substance • 5. Fail to inactivate vasopressores
Endocrine HTN • Aldostronism • Cushing Sndrome • Adrenogenital Syndrome • Pheochromocytoma • Acromegaly • Hypercalcemia • Oral contraceptives
Oral Contraceptives • Estogen stimulate hepatic angiotensinogen • 5% increase BP • Familial Factors • Age over 35 • Obesity
Symptoms & Signs • Elevated pressure itself • headache,dizziness,palpitation, • easy fatigability • 2.Hypertension vascular disease: • epistaxis,hematuria,TIA,angina,dyspnea • 3.Underlying disease in secondary HTN: • polyuria & polydipsia,… • 4.Most patients are asymptomatic
Factors indicating adverse prognosis • Black race • Youth age • Male • Persistent diastolic pressure >115 mmhg • Smoking • Diabetes Mellitus • Hypercholesterolemia • Obesity • Excess alcohol intake • Evidence of End Organ Damage
Manifestation of Target Organ Disease 1.Cardiac :CAD LVH Cardiac Failure 2.Cerebrovascular:TIA / CVA 3.Peripheral Vascular 4.Renal 5.Retinopathy Infarction Hemorrhage Encephalopathy
Medical Therapy • DIURETICS • ACEI • BETA-BLOCKERS • CALCIUM BLOCKERS
Drugs used in Emergency HTN • Hydralazine • Minoxidil • Diazoxide • Nitroprusside
Basis of Treatment Salt restriction Na intake <100mm Relaxation Reduce sympathetic Weight loss Diet /Exercise Exercise Aerobic
Basic Tests for Evaluation Urinalysis CBC(Hct) Na-K Creatinine/BUN EKG FBS-Cholestrol(LDL-HDL)-TG Ca++-Phosphate-Uric Acid Chest-X-Ray / Echocardiogram
Coarctation of Aorta Diminished or delayed Femoral Pulses Rib notching on chest-X-Ray
Pheochromocytoma Unusual lability of BP Symptomatic Paroxysm of HTN Spell of Pallor Palpitation Perspiration Headache Hypertensive reaction to G/A or antihypertensive drugs
Renovascular HTN • Age under 30 • DBP > 120 mmHg • Continuous bruit in epigasrium or • flanks • 4.Accelerated HTN • 5.Hx. Of flank pain,hematuria or renal • truma • 6.palpable kidney • 7.HTN resistant to treatment
Conn’s Syndrome • Serum potassium less than 3.6 • 2.Urinary Potassium more than 30/24h • in the absence of diuretic therapy
Isolated Systolic HTN • Decreased aortic compliance • as in arteriosclerosis • B.Increased stroke volume • 1-AI • 2-Thyrotoxicosis • 3-Hyperkinetic heart syndrome • 4-Fever • 5-AVF • 6-PDA
