HYPERTENSION Prof. Jamal Al Wakeel Consultant Nephrology Division Department of Medicine
Case • 47 year old man came to your clinic with headache for 3 weeks. The nurse measure his Blood Pressure and was found to be 150/95 mmHg: • Does he have Hypertension? • What is the stage of Hypertension? • What investigation should you perform? • What could be your management on his case? • Is their any possible prevention to his disease and its complication?
The Objectives of this Lecture are: To be able to recognize the definition of hypertension To be able to identify the Stages of Hypertension To find out the complication of Hypertension To learn how to measure blood pressure To familiarize with the test done for Hypertension To acquire knowledge on how to treat hypertension
HYPERTENSION • The 4th most common cause of death world-wide • Directly and indirectly responsible for >20% of all deaths • From 1999 to 2009 the death rate from high blood pressure increased 17.1% • 29-30% (about 77.9 million, 1 out of very 3) incidence of hypertension adult of the United States. • 9.1% and 8.7% the population of Saudi Arabia with hypertension 160/95 mmHg
Onset stage 25-55 years mainly in 40-50y • Occurs over 30%of persons older tha 65 y • Only 34%-52.5% of persons with hypertension have their blood pressure under control.
Prevalence of High Blood Pressure inAdults Age 20 and Older NHANES: 2007–2010 Source: NCHS and NHLBI. Hypertension is defined as SBP 140 mm Hg or DBP 90 mmHg, taking antihypertensive medication, or being told twice by a physician or other professional that one has hypertension.
BP Control Rates Trends in awareness, treatment, and control of high blood pressure in adults ages 18–74 Sources: Unpublished data for 1999–2000 computed by M. Wolz, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute; JNC 6. and American Heart Association: Statistical Fact Sheet 2013 Update
In 90%-95% of cases no cause can be found primary hypertension (essential) • Secondary hypertension 5-10% Hypertension
Essential HTN • Risk factors • Obesity---metabolic syndrome • Excessive salt intake---low potassium intake • Excessive alcohol intake • Polycythemia • Lack of exercise • Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs • Family history of essential HTN • Caffeine and smoking increase the BP acutely but are not risk factors for the development of chronic essential HTN
Secondary Hypertension • Primary renal disease • Oral contraceptives • Sleep apnea syndrome • Primary hyperaldosteronism • Renovascular disease • Cushing’s syndrome • Pheochromocytoma • Other endocrine disorders • Coarctation of the aorta

National Institute for Health and Clinic Excellence Hypertension Guidelines 2011 (UK) • Stage 1 • Clinical Blood Pressure – 140/90 mmHg • Ambulatory Blood Pressure day time Monitoring (ABPM) – 135/85 mmHg • Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) - 135/85 mmHg • Stage 2 • Clinical Blood Pressure – 160/100 mmHg • Ambulatory Blood Pressure day time Monitoring (ABPM) – 150/95 mmHg • Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) - 150/95 mmHg • Severe hypertension (Stage 3) • Clinical Blood Pressure – 180/110 mmHg
Type of Instrument of Blood Pressure Measurement Sphygmomanometer
Type of Instrument of Blood Pressure Measurement Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Type of Instrument of Blood Pressure Measurement Ambulatory Pressure Monitoring
Blood Pressure • Apply to adults on no antihypertensive medications and who are not acutely ill. • If there is a disparity in category between the systolic and diastolic pressures, the higher value determines the severity of the hypertension. • Measure blood pressure to arm the high reading.
Measurement • Patient should be seated with the back straight and the arm supported at heart level • The patient should rest for 5 minutes • The bladder of the pressure cuff should encircle at least 80% of the upper arm • If BP measure =more140/90 mmHg, perform second reading. If second reading is still high, take third reading.
The diagnosis of mild hypertension should not be made until the blood pressure has been measured on at least three to six visits • Average of 10 to 15 mmHg decrease between visits 1 and three
White Coat Hypertension • Approximately 20 to 25% of patients with mild office hypertension • More common in elderly • Infrequent in patients with office diastolic pressures ≥105 mmHg
Risk of Hypertension for each 2 mmHg increase in systolic blood pressure Increase risk of cardiovascular mortality by 7% Risk of stroke by 10%
This left ventricle is very thickened (slightly over 2 cm in thickness), but the rest of the heart is not greatly enlarged. This is typical for hypertensive heart disease. The hypertension creates a greater pressure load on the heart to induce the hypertrophy.
The left ventricle is markedly thickened in this patient with severe hypertension that was untreated for many years. The myocardial fibers have undergone hypertrophy.
Malignant Hypertension • Marked hypertension with encephapapathy& retinal hemorrhages, exudates, or papilledema • Associated with a diastolic pressure above 120 mmHg
Hypertensive RetinopathyGrade 1 • Generalized arteriolar constriction-seen as `silver wiring` and Vascular tortuosities
Hypertensive Retinopathy Grade 2 Arteriovenous nicking in association with hypertension Grade 2 (yellow arrow)
Hypertensive Retinopathy Grade 3 Flame-shaped hemorrhage in association with severe hypertension Grade 3 (yellow arrow)
Hypertensive Retinopathy Grade 4 Papilledema from malignant hypertension. There is blurring of the borders of the optic disk with hemorrhages (yellow arrows) and exudates (white arrow)
Hypertensive Urgency Severe hypertension (diastolic blood pressure above 120 mmHg) in asymptomatic patients There is no proven benefit from rapid reduction in BP in asymptomatic patients who have no evidence of acute end-organ and are little short-term risk Hypertensive Emergency Severe hypertension (diastolic blood pressure above 120 mmHg) in end organ damage (MI,STROKE,AKI,CHF)
Diagnosis Hypertension Clinical Presentations: • Asymptomatic • Headache • Epistaxis • Chest discomfort • Symptom of complications Screening: • Every two years for persons with systolic and diastolic pressures below 120 mmHg and 80 mmHg • Yearly for persons with a systolic pressure of 120 to 139 mmHg OR Diastolic pressure of 80-89 mmHg
History • Presence of precipitating or aggravating factors • Natural course of the blood pressure • Extent of target organ damage • Presence secondary HTN of other risk factors for cardiovascular disease
Physical Examination • To evaluate for signs of end-organ damage • For evidence of a cause of secondary hypertension
Laboratory Tests • Routine Tests • Electrocardiogram • Urinalysis • Serum sodium, serum potassium, creatinine, or the corresponding estimated GFR, and calcium • Blood glucose, and hematocrit • Lipid profile, after 9- to 12-hour fast, that includes high density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides • Optional tests • Measurement of urinary albumin excretion or albumin/creatinine ratio • More extensive testing for identifiable causes is not generally indicated unless BP control is not achieved
TREATMENT OF HYPERTENSION • Lifestyle modifications • High normal SBP >130 – 139 mmHg DBP 85 – 89 mmHg in high risk patients • Drug therapy • If BP is 140/90 mmHg
Blood Pressure Target: (UK) • Age < 80 yrs (high risk) <140/90 mmHg • Age < 80 yrs (no risk) 140/90 mmHg • Age > 80 yrs 150/90 mmHg • Blood Pressure Target: (European) • <140/90 mmHg
Dietary Approaches To Stop Hypertension (DASH) • Diet high in fruits and vegetables and low-fat dairy products • Recommends 7-8 servings/day of grain/grain products, 4-5 vegetable, 4-5 fruit, 2-3 low- or non-fat dairy products, 2 or less meat, poultry, and fish. NEJM 1997; 366: 1117-24.
Follow-up And Monitoring • Patients should return for follow-up after 4 weeks and adjustment of medications until the BP goal is reached • More frequent visits for stage 2 HTN or with complicating co-morbid conditions. • Serum potassium and creatinine monitored 1–2 times per year.
Drug Therapy • A low dose of initial drug should be used, slowly titrating upward. • Optimal formulation should provide 24-hour efficacy with once-daily dose. • Combination therapies may provide additional efficacy with fewer adverse effects.
