Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 Surprise! Viagra helps children with pulmonary hypertension By Dr. Sanjay Gupta CNN Your Health (CNN) This week we reported a story about giving Viagra to children with severe pulmonary hypertension. Most of my colleagues were astonished that this wildly popular impotence drug would be given to children, even newborns. I thought this was an interesting story because it illustrates some of the serendipitous discoveries in medicine. First of all, when Viagra was first introduced, it was pitched as a heart drug, specifically to control angina or chest pain. The drug would do this by actually dilating the blood vessels in the heart. Patients started telling doctors that in addition to relief from chest pain, it seemed to be treating impotence. As word got out, more and more patients started taking it for that reason. In much the same way, doctors may find that this particular medication also takes care of potentially life-threatening pulmonary hypertension. It seems to dilate the blood vessels leading to the lungs just like it did in the heart. And that would be a very good thing for the 28,000 children who suffer from this disease. Hospital infections on the rise Hospital infections killed more than 90,000 people in the year 2000, and about three-quarters of those deaths could have been prevented.

This Publication Is Searchable The Merck Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy Section 16. Cardiovascular Disorders Chapter 199. Arterial Hypertension Topics [General] Renovascular Hypertension Hypertensive Encephalopathy [General] Arterial hypertension: Elevation of systolic and/or diastolic BP, either primary or secondary. (For a discussion of hypertension in pregnancy, see Ch. 250. Prevalence Table 199-1 ). Hypertension occurs more often in black adults (32%) than in white (23%) or Mexican American (23%) adults, and morbidity and mortality are greater in blacks. Diastolic BP increases with age until age 55 or 60. Etiology and Pathogenesis Primary hypertension: Primary (essential) hypertension is of unknown etiology; its diverse hemodynamic and pathophysiologic derangements are unlikely to result from a single cause. Heredity is a predisposing factor, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Environmental factors (eg, dietary Na, obesity, stress) seem to act only in genetically susceptible persons. Isolated, perfused kidneys from Dahl salt-sensitive rats (which are genetically prone to hypertension when fed a high-salt diet) do not excrete water or Na as rapidly as those from Dahl salt-resistant rats, even before hypertension develops. The pathogenic mechanisms must lead to increased total peripheral vascular resistance (TPR) by inducing vasoconstriction, to increased cardiac output (CO), or to both because BP equals CO (flow) times resistance. Although expansion of intravascular and extravascular fluid volume is widely claimed to be important, such expansion can only raise BP by increasing CO (by increasing venous return to the heart), by increasing TPR (by causing vasoconstriction), or by both; it frequently does neither.

Mental Health You are in: Circulatory Problems High Blood Pressure Overview When the heart pumps blood into the arteries, the blood flows with a force pushing against the walls of the arteries. This force is called the blood pressure. When your blood pressure is measured, it is a measure of how hard the heart has to work to pump the blood. When the arteries become hardened and narrowed with cholesterol plaque and calcium (atherosclerosis), the heart has to strain much harder to pump blood through them. This makes the blood pressure go abnormally high. High blood pressure is also called hypertension. What makes high blood pressure important is that it usually causes no symptoms but can still cause serious complications.

Ellen L. Morzurkewich, MD, and colleagues from the University of Michigan and the University of Washington conducted a meta-analysis of 29 published studies involving 160,988 working women. Their study documents significant association between women's working conditions and adverse pregnancy outcomes. They evaluated the association between preterm (premature) births and mothers' working conditions including physically demanding work, prolonged standing, long working hours, shift work, and work fatigue. They also analyzed the association between physically demanding work and hypertension or preeclampisa and small-for-gestational-age infants. The authors found a significant association between physically demanding work (defined as heavy and/or repetitive lifting or load carrying, manual labor, or significant physical exertion) and preterm birth.
