HYPERTENSION
![Page 2: HYPERTENSION. Problem Magnitude Hypertension( HTN) is the most common primary diagnosis in America. 35 million office visits are as the primary diagnosis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649f515503460f94c750d1/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Problem Magnitude Hypertension( HTN) is the most common primary diagnosis in America.
35 million office visits are as the primary diagnosis of HTN.
50 million or more Americans have high BP.
Worldwide prevalence estimates for HTN may be as much as 1 billion.
7.1 million deaths per year may be attributable to hypertension.

Definition A systolic blood pressure ( SBP) >139 mmHg and/or
A diastolic (DBP) >89 mmHg. Based on the average of two or more properly measured, seated BP readings.
On each of two or more office visits.
![Page 4: HYPERTENSION. Problem Magnitude Hypertension( HTN) is the most common primary diagnosis in America. 35 million office visits are as the primary diagnosis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649f515503460f94c750d1/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Accurate Blood Pressure Measurement
The equipment should be regularly inspected and validated.
The operator should be trained and regularly retrained.
The patient must be properly prepared and positioned and seated quietly for at least 5 minutes in a chair.
The auscultatory method should be used. Caffeine, exercise, and smoking should be avoided for at least 30 minutes before BP measurement.
An appropriately sized cuff should be used.

BP Measurement At least two measurements should be made and the average recorded.
Clinicians should provide to patients their specific BP numbers and the BP goal of their treatment.

Prehypertension SBP >120 mmHg and <139mmHg and/or
DBP >80 mmHg and <89 mmHg.
Prehypertension is not a disease category rather a designation for individuals at high risk of developing HTN.
![Page 8: HYPERTENSION. Problem Magnitude Hypertension( HTN) is the most common primary diagnosis in America. 35 million office visits are as the primary diagnosis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649f515503460f94c750d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pre-HTN Individuals who are prehypertensive are not candidates for drug therapy but
Should be firmly and unambiguously advised to practice lifestyle modification
Those with pre-HTN, who also have diabetes or kidney disease, drug therapy is indicated if a trial of lifestyle modification fails to reduce their BP to 130/80 mmHg or less.
![Page 9: HYPERTENSION. Problem Magnitude Hypertension( HTN) is the most common primary diagnosis in America. 35 million office visits are as the primary diagnosis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649f515503460f94c750d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Isolated Systolic Hypertension Not distinguished as a separate entity as far as management is concerned.
Systolic BP is more important cardiovascular risk factor after age 50.
Diastolic BP is more important before age 50.

Hypertensive Urgencies Severe elevated BP in the upper range of stage II hypertension.
Without progressive end-organ dysfunction.
Examples: Highly elevated BP without severe headache, shortness of breath or chest pain.
