May consider ACEI, ARB, BB, CCB, or combination. (SBP >160 or DBP >100 mmHg) 2-drug combination for most (usually thiazide-type diuretic and ACEI, or ARB, or BB, or CCB) Not at Goal Blood Pressure Optimize dosages or add additional drugs until goal blood pressure is achieved. Consider consultation with hypertension specialist. Drug(s) for the compelling indications Other antihypertensive drugs (diuretics, ACEI, ARB, BB, CCB) as needed. Classification and Management of BP for adults Initial drug therapy BP Class SBP DBP Lifestyle Normal <120 <80 Prehypertension 120– 139 or 80– 89 Yes No antihypertensive drug Drug(s) indicated. Stage 1 Hypertension 140– 159 or 90– 99 Yes Thiazide-type diuretics for most. May consider ACEI, ARB, BB, CCB, or combination. Stage 2 Hypertension >160 or >100 Yes Without compelling indication Encourage None Two-drug combination (usually thiazide and ACEI or ARB or BB or CCB). *Treatment determined by highest BP category. †Initial combined therapy should be used cautiously in those at risk for orthostatic hypotension. ‡Treat patients with chronic kidney disease or diabetes to BP goal of <130/80 mmHg. Compelling indications None Other antihypertensive drugs (diuretics, ACEI, ARB, BB, CCB) as needed. Special Considerations Compelling Indications Special populations HTN with COPD and MI A 55 year old patient with COPD and HTN (controlled with nifedipine) is admitted with severe chest pain x24 hrs. BP is 170/100 and she has a soft S3 gallop. ECG shows an anterior wall MI. She is not a candidate for thrombolysis. ECHO shows an ejection fraction of 35%. How will you manage her hypertension? Compelling Indications for Certain Drug Classes HTN with CAD Beta blockers: cardioprotective (reinfarction, arrhythmias and sudden death) ACE inhibitors: MI with systolic dysfunction- heart failure and mortality improved Renal Insufficiency A 30 year old patient with IDDM is referred with difficult-to-control HTN on diltiazem and clonidine. Exam reveals BP=190/100 and 3+ edema. Labs: Creatinine Serum K 24 hour protein = 2.2 mg/dL = 5.1 meq/L =5g Hypertension with Renal Insufficiency Goal BP <130/80 ACE-inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers should be used if no contraindications Most patients have volume overload: Diuretics should be included in the regimen. Thiazides ineffective if S Creat>2.5 A 40 year old previously healthy male is brought to the E.R. with 3 days of progressive shortness of breath and has experienced blurred vision in both eyes. Physical exam: Blood pressure 230/140. Lethargic. Eye exam: Papilledema Chest: Bibasilar crackles Cardiac: S1S2S4 Neuro: Bilateral upgoing plantars: Extr: 2+ edema Labs: K=3.4, BUN=35, Creatinine: 2.2 CXR: Pulmonary edema Urine: 10-15 red cells, 2+ albumin. Hypertensive Urgencies and Emergencies HYPERTENSIVE EMERGENCIES Require immediate blood pressure reduction (not necessarily to normal range) to prevent or limit target organ damage. HYPERTENSIVE URGENCIES Require reduction of blood pressure within a few hours Emergencies & Urgencies HYPERTENSIVE EMERGENCIES Require immediate blood pressure reduction (not necessarily to normal range) to prevent or limit target organ damage. HYPERTENSIVE URGENCIES Require reduction of blood pressure within a few hours Parenteral Drugs For Treatment of Hypertensive Emergencies VASODILATORS Nitroprusside Fenoldopam Nitroglycerine Enalaprilat Nicardipine Hydralazine ADRENERGIC INHIBITORS Labetalol Esmolol Phentolamine Pregnancy and Hypertension A 24 year old primiparous woman is seen in the obstetric clinic at 30 weeks gestation. BP: 160/100, 2 + pedal edema Otherwise unremarkable physical exam. Urine shows 1000 mg of protein. Other labs: N After 2 days of bed rest BP remains 160-170/100 Drug Therapy of the Hypertensive Pregnant Patient Methyldopa: Drug of choice. Beta blockers (not early pregnancy). Hydralazine is the parenteral drug of choice. Most agents if used prior to pregnancy may be continued (except ACE-I OR A-II BLOCKERS) Resistant Hypertension Improper BP measurement Excess sodium intake Inadequate diuretic therapy Medication • Inadequate doses • Drug actions and interactions (e.g., nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), illicit drugs, sympathomimetics, oral contraceptives) • Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and herbal supplements Excess alcohol intake Identifiable causes of HTN Conclusions The initial approach to hypertension should start with ruling out secondary causes, detecting and treating other cardiovascular risk factors, and looking for target organ damage. Treatment should always include lifestyle changes. Medication use should be guided by the severity of HTN and the presence of “compelling” indications. Thiazide-type diuretics should be initial drug therapy for most, either alone or combined with other drug classes. Most patients will require two or more antihypertensive drugs Conclusions HTN is a risk factor for mortality and cardiovascular and renal disease HTN is common but not controlled.
