    Living with Hypertension

    Hypertension C.T.
    Hypertension
    Hypertension is the name of a condition in which blood pressure is persistently elevated (it stays high for a long period of time). Blood pressure is a measure of the pressure of the blood against the blood vessel walls. Persistent high blood pressure puts undue stress on the heart, blood vessels and other organs.
    The Causes of High Blood Pressure
    The causes of high blood pressure are a bit of a mystery. About 5% of patients requiring hypertension treatment can trace their high blood pressure to a physical cause such as kidney disease. Treatment of the disease reduces the symptoms of high blood pressure.
    But for of patients who undergo hypertension treatment, the causes of high blood pressure are unknown . Diet and stress are suspected as prime contributors to hypertension, but medical experts aren't exactly certain of all the mechanisms involved.
    Society's to Blame!
    Well, okay, maybe not to blame , but a much higher incidence of hypertension exists in Western society than in other cultures.
    Studies done in Africa examined Africans' blood pressure before and after entering a big city and adopting Western lifestyles. Blood pressure usually rose after the move to the city.

  • Overview
  • Hypertension is defined as a sustained systolic blood pressure (SBP) of greater than or equal to 140 mm Hg or a sustained diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of greater than or equal to 90 mm Hg. For patients with diabetes the goal is a SBP of 130 mm Hg and a DBP of 85 mm Hg. For patients with renal insufficiency (greater than 1 g of proteinuria in 24 hours) the goal is a SBP of 125 mm Hg and a DBP of 75 mm Hg. Before diagnosing an individual as hypertensive, one should document an elevated blood pressure on at least three occasions over a 2-week period. The patient should be free of stress at the time of the exam including being free of pain and anxiety (such as white coat hypertension). Use a cuff of the proper size (small size gives falsely elevated readings) and the arm should be resting comfortably on an armrest. If the results are still inconclusive, consider 24-hour ambulatory monitoring. Treatment of hypertension can reduce many of the complications such as CHF, nephropathy, and cerebrovascular events.

    NHLBI Communications
    Office: (301) 496-4236
    Statement on Sodium Intake and High Blood Pressure High blood pressure, or hypertension, affects about 50 million Americansone in four adults. It is the leading cause of stroke and contributes to heart attack, heart failure, and kidney failure. Some Americans, such as older Americans and African Americans, are at a particularly high risk from high blood pressure. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) supports a range of research, including epidemiological and clinical studies, to help Americans and their health care professionals better prevent and control high blood pressure. As part of this public health effort, the NHLBI works with other public and private sector organizations to develop clinical practice guidelines based on reviews of the scientific literature. The latest hypertension guidelines were released in November 1997. The NHLBI also conducts periodic reviews on topics such as dietary sodium as new findings are published. One important aspect of hypertension prevention and management that has raised questions among scientists and in the media is the effect of sodium consumption on blood pressure. Sodium chloride, or table salt, increases average levels of blood pressure. Some individuals have greater blood pressure responses to salt than others.

    Introduction
    Hypertension is an intermittent or persistent elevation of the blood pressure (systolic blood pressure above 140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure above 90 mm Hg) or (a systolic and diastolic pressure of 20 mm Hg above the normal baseline pressure). Hypertension has recently increased in incidence throughout the world. It is thought that the stresses of everyday life with a change in the dietary habits and lack of exercise has led to the increasing incidence of hypertension. Previously hypertension was predominant only in industrialized and developed countries. However, of late there has been a sudden increase in the number of cases in developing countries.
    Cause and Pathogenesis The cause of primary (essential) hypertension is not known. It is thought to be due to multiple risk factors. Known risk factors include a familial history of the disease, race, obesity, tobacco smoking, stress, and a high-fat or high-sodium diet in genetically susceptible individuals.
