Circulation. 2007;115: Patient Evaluation Evaluation of patients with documented HTN has three objectives: 1. Assess lifestyle and identify other CV risk factors or concomitant disorders that affects prognosis and guides treatment. 2. Reveal identifiable causes of high BP. 3. Assess the presence or absence of target organ damage and CVD.

9 Target Organ Damage Heart Left ventricular hypertrophy Angina or prior myocardial infarction Prior coronary revascularization Heart failure Brain Stroke or transient ischemic attack Chronic kidney disease Peripheral arterial disease Retinopathy Laboratory Tests Routine Tests Electrocardiogram Urinalysis Blood glucose, and hematocrit Serum potassium, creatinine, or the corresponding estimated GFR, and calcium 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

10 Development of Antihypertensive Therapies Classes of Antihypertensive Drugs Aldosterone receptor antagonists (blockers) Angiotensin II antagonists Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors α-blockers α 1 -Selective Nonselective β-blockers β-1/β-2 β-1 predominant α/β Intrinsic sympathomimetic activity Calcium channel antagonists Nondihydropyridine Dihydropyridine Central α 2 agonists Direct renin inhibitors Direct vasodilators Diuretics Thiazide-type Loop-type Potassium-sparing Ganglionic blockers

JAMA. 2003;289:

13 Goals of Therapy Reduce CVD and renal morbidity and mortality. Treat to BP <140/90 mmhg or BP <130/80 mmhg in patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease. Achieve SBP goal especially in persons >50 years of age. Lifestyle Modification Modification Weight reduction Adopt DASH eating plan Dietary sodium reduction Physical activity Approximate SBP reduction (range) 5 20 mmhg/10 kg weight loss 8 14 mmhg 2 8 mmhg 4 9 mmhg Moderation of alcohol consumption 2 4 mmhg

14 Benefits of Lowering BP Average Percent Reduction Stroke incidence 35 40% Myocardial infarction 20 25% Heart failure 50% Causes of Resistant Hypertension Improper BP measurement Excess sodium intake Inadequate diuretic therapy Medication Inadequate doses Drug actions and interactions (e.g., nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs), illicit drugs, sympathomimetics, oral contraceptives) Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and herbal supplements Excess alcohol intake Identifiable causes of HTN drugs

15 Physiology of RAAS Bradykinin ACE Angiotensinogen Angiotensin I Angiotensin II Renin Aldosterone Angiotensin III Angiotensin IV Angiotensin II Receptor Goodfriend et al. N Engl J Med ;334: PRA is Correlated With RAAS Activation Plasma renin activity (PRA) is a measure of the conversion of angiotensinogen to ANG1 Elevated PRA is correlated to increased levels of ANG 1 and ANG 2 and therefore is a marker for RAAS activation

16 Consequences of Overactivation of RAAS ANG II is the metabolically active end product of RAAS Increases vasoconstrictiom Increases renal sodium reabsorption Stimulates aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone secretion Angiotensin II as a Cardiac and Renal Toxin Angiotensin Renin Chymase Cathepsin G Carboxypeptidase ARB Ang I Ang II ACEI Bradykinin Inactive Fragments AT 1 R Aldosterone Reactive O 2 Species Cell Growth Sympathetic Activation Renal Na +, H 2 O Vasoconstriction Cardiac, Vascular, Collagen CHF Renal Hypertrophy Carey et al.
