HypertensionPersistent elevation of arterial blood pressure (BP)National Guideline
7th Report of the Joint National Committee on the Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC7)
~72 million Americans (31%) have BP > 140/90 mmHg
Most patients asymptomatic Cardiovascular morbidity & mortality risk directly
correlated with BP; antihypertensive drug therapy reduces cardiovascular & mortality risk

Clinical ControversyWhite coat hypertension: elevated BP in
clinic followed by normal BP reading at homeAggressive treatment of white coat
hypertension is controversialPatients with white coat hypertension may
have increased CV risk compared to those without such BP changes

Classification for AdultsClassification based on average of > 2
properly measured seated BP measurements from > 2 clinical encounters
If systolic & diastolic blood pressure values give different classifications, classify by highest category
> 130/80 mmHg: above goal for patients with diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney disease
Prehypertension: patients likely to develop hypertension

Clinical ControversyAmbulatory BP measurements may be more
accurate & better predict target-organ damage than manual BP measurements using a sphygmomanometer in a clinic setting (gold standard)
many patients may be misdiagnosed, misclassified
poor technique, daily BP variability, white coat HTN

Lifestyle ModificationsModification Recommendation
Approximate Systolic Blood Pressure Reduction (mm Hg)a
Weight loss Maintain normal body weight (body mass index 18.5–24.9 kg/m2)
5–20 per 10-kg weight loss
DASH-type dietary patterns
Consume a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products with a reduced content of saturated and total fat
8–14
Reduced salt intake
Reduce daily dietary sodium intake as much as possible, ideally to 65 mmol/day (1.5 g/day sodium, or 3.8 g/day sodium chloride)
2–8
Physical activity
Regular aerobic physical activity (at least 30 min/day, most days of the week)
4–9
Moderation of alcohol intake
Limit consumption to 2 drinks/day in men and 1 drink/day in women and lighter-weight persons
2–4

Chronic HTN in PregnancyDrug/Class Comments
Methyldopa Preferred based on long-term follow-up data supporting safety
β-Blockers Generally safe, but intrauterine growth retardation reported
Labetolol Increasingly preferred over methyldopa because of fewer side effects
Clonidine Limited data
Calcium channel blockers
Limited data; no increase in major teratogenicity with exposure
Diuretics Not first-line, probably safe in low doses
ACE inhibitors, ARBs
Pregnancy category C in 1st trimester, category D in 2nd & 3rd trimester. Major teratogenicity has been reported with exposure (fetal toxicity, death)

causes compensatory increase in peripheral vascular resistance
Extracellular & plasma volume return to near pretreatment levels with chronic useperipheral vascular resistance becomes lower

Clinical ControversyCV events risk further reduced when ARB
combined with an ACE inhibitor for patients with left ventricular dysfunction
Data supports ACE/ARB combination therapy for patients with severe forms of nephrotic syndrome
Combination ACE/ARB therapy not well studied as standard treatment for HTN
Significantly higher risk of adverse effects such as hyperkalemia

Cardioselective β-BlockersGreater affinity for β1 than β2 receptors

Atenolol t½: 6 to 7 hrs yet it is often dosed once dailyIR forms of carvedilol & metoprolol tartrate have
