Hypertension
Definition
• Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP
– Systolic blood pressure 140 mm Hg
– Diastolic blood pressure 90 mm Hg
Blood Pressure Grades
BP grades
SBP mmHg
DBP mmHg
optimum
< 120
< 80
Normal
< 130
< 85
Pre-hypertension
130-139
85-89
grade 1 mild
140-159
90-99
Grade 2 moderate
160-179
100-109
Grade 3 severe
> 180
> 110
Classification of Hypertension
• Primary (Essential) Hypertension
- Elevated BP with unknown cause
- 90% to 95% of all cases
• Secondary Hypertension
- Elevated BP with a specific cause
- 5% to 10% in adults
Risk Factors for Primary
Hypertension
• Age, Gender, Family history & Ethnicity
(African Americans)
• Alcohol & Cigarette smoking
• Diabetes mellitus & Elevated serum lipids
• Excess dietary sodium
• Obesity (BMI > 30) & sedentary lifestyle
• Stress & Socioeconomic status
Classification of Hypertension
• Secondary Hypertension
- Contributing factors:
• Coarctation of aorta
• Renal disease
• Endocrine disorders
• Neurologic disorders
Hypertension
Clinical Manifestations
• Frequently asymptomatic until severe
and target organ disease has occurred
–
–
–
–
–
Fatigue, reduced activity tolerance
Dizziness
Palpitations, angina
Dyspnea
Headache is due to stress rather due to
hypertension
Hypertension
Complications
The common complications are
target organ diseases occurring in the
Heart
Brain
Kidney
Eyes
Retina Normal and Hypertensive
Retinopathy
A

C
Normal Retina
Hypertensive
Retinopathy
A: Hemorrhages
B: Exudates (Fatty
Deposits)
C: Cotton Wool Spots
(Micro Strokes)
Hypertension
Diagnosis
• Diagnosis requires several elevated
readings over several weeks (unless >
180/110)
• BP measurement in both arms
- Use arm with higher reading for
subsequent measurements
Treatment Goals
• Goal is to reduce overall cardiovascular
risk factors and control BP by the least
intrusive means possible
– BP < 140/90
– In patients with diabetes or renal
disease, goal is < 130/80
Hypertension
Lifestyle Modifications
1. Weight reduction
2. Dietary changes (DASH diet)
Dietary Approaches to Stop HTN
- Sodium restriction
-Rich in vegetables, fruits & nonfat dairy products
-Calorie restriction if overweight
3. Limitation of alcohol intake
4. Regular physical activity
5. Avoidance of tobacco use
6. Stress management
Hypertension
• Drug Therapy
• Diuretics
• ACE Inhibitors
• Calcium channel blockers
• Adrenergic inhibitors
• β - Adrenergic blockers
