Definition of Hypertension
Hypertension is a clinical syndrome, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg.
Hypertension should be considered a major risk factor for an array of cardiovascular and related disease as well as diseases leading to a marked increase in cardiovascular risk.

Etiology of Hypertension Genetic factors play an important role.
Children with one- or two-hypertensive parents have higher blood pressures.
Environmental factors also are significant. Increased salt intake has long been incriminated as a pathogenic factor in essential hypertension. It alone is probably not sufficient to elevate blood pressure to abnormal levels; a combination of too much salt plus a genetic predisposition is required.
11
Pathogenesis The pathogenesis of essential hyper
tension is multifactorial. Sympathetic nervous system hyperacti
vity. It is most apparent in younger hypertensives, who may exhibit tachycardia and an elevated cardiac output. However, correlations between plasma catecholamines and blood pressure are poor.
12
Pathogenesis Renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Renin
acts on angiotensinogen to cleave of the ten-amino-acid peptide angiotensin I. This peptide is then acted upon by angiotensin-converting enzyme to create the eight-amino-acid peptide angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor and a major stimulant of aldosterone release from the adrenal glands.
13
Pathogenesis
Defect of natriuresis. Hypertensive patients exhibit a diminished ability to excrete a sodium load. This defect may result in increased plasma volume and hypertension.
14
Pathogenesis
Intracellular sodium and calcium. An increase in intracellular Na+ may lead to increased intracellular Ca2 + concentrations as a result of facilitated exchange. This could explain the increase in vascular smooth muscle tone.
15
Pathogenesis Exacerbating factors. The best-documented
is obesity, which is associated with an increase in intravascular volume and an elevated cardiac output. Some hypertensives respond to high salt intake with substantial blood pressure increases. Excessive use of alcohol also raises blood pressure. Cigarette smoking acutely raises blood pressure.
16
Pathology
Heart.
Left ventricular hypertrophy may cause or facilitate many cardiac complications of hypertension, including congestive heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias, myocardial ischemia, and sudden death.
17
Pathology
Brain.
Hypertension is the major predisposing cause of stroke, especially intracerebral hemorrhage but also ischemic cerebral infarction.
18
Pathology
Kidney.
Chronic hypertension leads to nephrosclerosis, a common cause of renal insufficiency.
19
Clinical Findings
Symptoms: Elevations in pressure are often
intermittent early. Even in established case, the blood pressure fluctuates widely in response to emotional stress and physical activity.
20
Clinical Findings
Symptoms: Mild to moderated essential
hypertension is usually associated with normal health and well-being for many years.
21
Clinical Findings
Symptoms: Suboccipital pulsating headaches,
but any type of headache, may occur. Accelerated hypertension is associated with somnolence, confusion, palpitation.
22
Signs: High blood pressure.
Physical findings depend upon the duration and severity, and the degree of effect on target organs.
A loud aortic second sound and an early systolic ejection click may occur.
24
Blood pressure (BP) measurement
When measuring BP, care should be taken to:
Allow the patients to sit for several minutes in a quiet room before beginning BP measurements
Take at lease two measurements spaced by 1-2 minutes, and additional measurements if the first two are quite different
25
Blood pressure (BP) measurement
Use a standard bladder (12-13 cm long and 35 cm wide) but have a larger and a smaller bladder available for fat and thin arms, respectively. Use the smaller in children
Have the cuff at the heart level, whatever the position of the patient

Definition and Classification of Blood Pressure Levels in different Country

Stratification of CV Risk
Stratification of CV Risk in four categories. SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; CV: Cardiovascular events; HT: hypertension. Low, moderate, high and very high risk refer to 10 year risk of a CV fatal or non-fatal event. The term “added” indicates that in all categories risk is greater than average. OD: subclinical organ damage; MS: metabolic syndrome. The dashed line indicates how definition of hypertension may be variable, depending on the level of total CV risk.

Initial Evaluation for Hypertension
Goal 3: Identification and Treatment of Secondary (Identifiable) Causes of Hypertension
36
two circumstances when there is a compelling finding
on the initial evaluation when the hypertensive process is
so severe that it either is refractory to intensive multiple-drug therapy or requires hospitalization
38
Secondary Hypertension Renal disease: any disease of the rena
l parenchyma can cause hypertension, and these conditions are the most common causes of secondary hypertension. Hypertension may result from glomerular diseases, tubular interstitial disease, and polycystic kidneys. Diabetic nephropathy is another cause of chronic hypertension.
39
Secondary Hypertension Renal vascular hypertension: it is due to artery s
tenosis, fibromuscular hyperplasia, and atherosclerotic stenoses.
It should be suspected in the following circumstances: (1) if the documented onset is below age 20 or after age 50; (2) if there are epigastric or renal artery bruits; (3) if there is atherosclerotic disease of aorta or peripheral arteries; or (4) if there is abrupt deterioration in renal function after administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.
40
Secondary Hypertension Primary hyperaldosteronism and Cushing’s
syndrome: the diagnosis should be suspected when patients present with hypokalemia prior to diuretic therapy associated with excessive urinary potassium excretion, increased serum sodium, and suppressed levels of plasma renin activity. Aldosterone concentrations in urine and blood are elevated. The lesion can be demonstrated by CT scanning or MRI.
41
Secondary Hypertension Pheochromocytoma: although hypert
ension due to pheochromocytoma may be episodic, most patients have sustained elevations. The majority of patients have orthostatic falls in blood pressure, the converse of essential hypertension; some develop glucose intolerance.
42
Secondary Hypertension Other causes of secondary hypertensi
on: hypertension has also been associated with acromegaly, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and a variety of neurologic disorders causing increased intracranial pressure.

When to initiate antihypertensive treatment
Based on two criteria: -The level of systolic and diastolic
blood pressure -The level of total cardiovascular
risk
51
Choice of antihypertensive drugs
Five major classes of antihypertensive agents – thiazide diuretics, calcium antagonists, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor antagonists and β-blockers – are suitable for the initiation and maintenance of antihypertensive treatment, alone or in combination.
52
Monotherapy versus combination therapy Monotherapy could be the initial tr
eatment for a mild BP elevation with a low or moderate total cardiovascular risk.
53
Monotherapy versus combination therapy A combination of two drugs at
low doses should be preferred as first step treatment when initial BP is in the grade 2 or 3 range or total cardiovascular risk is high or very high.
54
Monotherapy versus combination therapy In several patients BP control is
not achieved by two drugs, and a combination of three of more drugs is required.
