  14. Smoking

  15. Premature Deaths From Tobacco Use Preventable if adults quit (halving global cigarette consumption by 2020) Preventable if young adults do not start (halving global uptake by 2020) Other premature deaths from tobacco-related causes 2000-2024 2025-2049 The World Health Report, 1999: Making a Difference

  16. Blood PressureorHypertension?

  17. Hypertension and alcoholC. Lian, French army physician, 1915 30 25 20 15 % hypertensive 10 5 0 Tres Grands Buveurs Sobres Moyens Buveurs Grands Buveurs Sobres <1 litre wine/ day Moyens buveurs: 1-1.5 litres wine/ day Grands buveurs: 2-2.5 litres wine/ day Tres grands buveurs: 3 litres wine/ day + 4-6 aperitifs

  18. Blood PressureorHypertension?

  19. The ‘normal’ distribution of diastolic BP within a population % of screened population 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 Diastolic BP, mmHg

  20. Hypertension: a practical definition That level of blood pressure at which investigation and treatment do less harm than good Rose

  21. Assessment of the Hypertensive Patient

  22. Hypertension risk factors Weight Family history Salt, Alcohol,Stress History+Examination Concurrent conditions Asthma Gout Pregnancy Clues to 2o HT Symptoms Drugs Signs Target organ damage Heart Brain Eyes Kidneys Other CV risk factors Lipids Smoking Diabetes Exercise

  23. Investigations • Urine • Blood • ECG • Specialised investigations • Renal USS • 24-hour ABPM • Echocardiography • Angiography • Hormone assays • CT / MRI scanning

  24. Indications for further investigations • Clinical features of an underlying cause • Early onset (< 30 y) • Rapid progression • Proteinuria, haematuria, glycosuria • Severe hypertension, difficult to control • Vascular disease: peripheral, coronary, carotid • Heart failure, ‘flash’ pulmonary oedema • Lack of nocturnal dip on ABPM

  25. Secondary causes of hypertension… …. comprise a small proportion of overall cases, probably < 5%

  26. The Heinz guide to hypertension Renal artery stenosis Pyelonephritis Obstruct nephropathy Vesico-ureteric reflux Ask-Upmark kidney Renal dysplasia Renin JGA tumor Glomerulonephritis Polycystic disease Analgesic kidney Systemic sclerosis ITT purpura Haemolytic uremic 1o Aldosteronism Cushing’s syndrome Phaeochromocytoma DOC excess Cong adrenal h’plasia Gluc remediable Diabetes Amyloidosis Carbenoxalone Obstruct sleep apnoea Alcohol MAO-I inhibitors Pre-eclampsia Liquorice Sympathomimetics Chronic renal failure Poliomyelitis 11- OH-St dehyd def Porphyria Acromegaly Aortic coarctation  intracranial pressure Oral contraceptive Endothelinoma Lead poisoning Corticosteroids

  27. Secondary causes of hypertension Renal artery stenosis

  28. Secondary causes of hypertension Polycystic kidney Phaeochromocytoma

  29. Phaeochromocytoma MIBG scan

  30. Target Organ Damage&Complications of Hypertension

  31. Target organ damage: left ventricular hypertrophy

  32. Target organ damage: hypertensive retinopathy

  33. Grade 4 hypertensive retinopathy

  34. Complications of hypertension Intra-cerebral haemorrhage Myocardial infarction in hypertrophied left ventricle

  35. Management of Hypertension Non-pharmacological/ lifestyle Pharmacological

  36. Non-pharmacological interventions Measures that lower blood pressure: •  weight •  salt intake •  alcohol consumption •  physical exercise •  fruit & vegetable consumption Measures to reduce cardiovascular risk: • Stop smoking •  saturated fat,  poly- & mono-unsaturates •  oily fish consumption •  total fat intake BHS Guidelines 1999

  37. The Mediterranean Diet

  38. Non-fatal events 1200 Fatal events 1000 T=treatment C=control 800 Total number of individuals affected 600 T T T T C C C C 400 200 Stroke CHD All vascular deaths All other deaths 38% SD 4 16% SD 4 % reduction in odds BP lowering treatment and cardiovascular risk Brit Med Bull 1994;50:272-98

  39. Drug treatment of hypertension Diuretic ACE-inhibitor • Most hypertensives will need  2 drugs to control BP • Drug combinations may be synergistic Angiotensin receptor blocker Calcium-channel blocker Beta-blocker (Alpha-blocker)
