  2. Objectives • Review pharmacologic treatment of hypertension, including drug combinations and management of hypertension with other disease states • Discuss updates in the use of antihypertensive drugs • Describe medications used for hypertensive urgencies and emergencies

  3. Review of Hypertension

  4. Review of Hypertension • How many people in the US have hypertension?

  5. Review of Hypertension • How many people in the US have hypertension? • 58 to 65 million adults (estimated in 2008) • 29-31% of US adults • Treatment of hypertension • #1 reason for doctor visits (non-pregnant adults) • #1 reason for use of prescription drugs

  6. Review of Hypertension • Definitions • Normal blood pressure: systolic <120 mmHg and diastolic <80 mmHg • Prehypertension: systolic 120-139 mmHg or diastolic 80-89 mmHg • Hypertension: • Stage 1: systolic 140-159 mmHg or diastolic 90-99 mmHg • Stage 2: systolic ≥160 or diastolic ≥100 mmHg

  7. Review of Hypertension • Definitions • Isolated systolic hypertension: systolic ≥140 mmHg and diastolic <90 mmHg • Isolated diastolic hypertension: systolic <140 mmHg and diastolic ≥90 mmHg

  8. Review of Hypertension • Definitions continued • Malignant hypertension: hypertension with retinal hemorrhages, exudates, or papilledema • Hypertensive encephalopathy • Acute renal failure • Hypertensive urgency: Diastolic blood pressure > 120 mmHg without symptoms

  9. Review of Hypertension • Primary (essential) hypertension • Pathogenesis  • Increased sympathetic neural activity (beta-adrenergic) • Increased angiotensin II activity • Mineralocorticoid excess • Genetics • Reduced adult nephron mass

  10. Review of Hypertension • Risk Factors • Ethnicity • Genetics • Diet • Sodium intake • Alcohol • Obesity • Tobacco use • Decreased physical activity • Hyperlipidemia • Age > 65 years • Personality Traits • Vitamin D Deficiency

  11. Review of Hypertension • Complications • Risk factor for other disease states • Heart failure • Left ventricular hypertrophy • Stroke • Intra-cerebral hemorrhage • Kidney disease • Malignant hypertension

  12. Review of Hypertension • Treatment benefits • Reduce risk of cardiovascular events, kidney disease, eye damage, morbidity and mortality • Only 46-51%have blood pressure under control • Poor access to healthcare, medications • Lack of adherence • Side effects, disadvantages of therapy • Benefits not obvious to patients

  47. Other indications • Atrial tachyarrythmias/fibrillation • Beta blockers or calcium channel blockers (rate control) • Migraine, tremor • Beta blockers • BPH • Alpha-1 blockers • Asthma, reactive airway disease, second or third degree heart block • Avoid beta-blockers (especially non-selective) • Gout, hyponatremia • Avoid thiazide diuretics • Hyperkalemia • Avoid potassium-sparing diuretics, aldosterone antagonists
