hypertension - ANSWER- most prominent risk factor in developing cardiovascular
disease, BP increases as we age which puts everyone at risk for development
normal blood pressure - ANSWER- systolic <120mmHg and Diastolic <80 mmHg
stage 2 hypertension blood pressure - ANSWER- systolic and diastolic are in
different categories (systolic 160 and above while diastolic is 90 and above)
primary (essential) hypertension - ANSWER- no identifiable cause, progressive
and lifelong disorder; there are treatments available but no cure
populations at risk of primary hypertension - ANSWER- older adults, african
americans, mexican/hispanic background, postmenopausal women, obese
patients
secondary hypertension - ANSWER- Identifiable cause (usually due to another
illness), possibility to treat cause directly which can "cure" the patient
consequences of hypertension - ANSWER- myocardial infarction, heart failure
and angina development, kidney disease risk, stroke and arterial pressure rising
how is arterial pressure measured? - ANSWER- cardiac output x Peripheral
resistance
the direct benefits of lowering blood pressure will - ANSWER- decrease the
individual from the risk of heart disease
, life style modifications available to tx hypertension - ANSWER- weight loss,
sodium regulations, DASH diets, alcohol restriction, aerobic exercises and
smoking cessation
principal determinants of BP - ANSWER- arterial pressures (CO X peripheral
resistances) and Cardiac outputs (heart rate, myocardial contractility, blood
volumes and venous returns)
systems that regulate BP - ANSWER- sympathetic baroreceptor reflexes, RAAS,
renal regulation
decreases in BP will cause activation of - ANSWER- sympathetic nervous system
and vasopressin release
activation of sympathetic nervous system due to a decrease in BP will cause -
ANSWER- increase in renin release and activation of smooth muscles to increase
HR and TPR
renin release due to sympathetic nervous system stimulation will activate -
ANSWER- angiotension I which will then activate angiotension II to effect the
kidney and increase volume production
retentions of water and sodium will lead to - ANSWER- increases in blood volume
and ICF
B-blockers and peripherally acting sympatholytics cause effects to which organ?
- ANSWER- The heart (decreasing force and rate of contractions); decreases CO
diuretics, angiotensin inhibitors and B-blocks cause effects to which organ -
ANSWER- Kidney; decreasing blood volume (decreasing CO)
peripherally acting sympatholytics, CA++ channel blockers, direct vasodilators
and angiotension inhibitors cause effects to which organ? - ANSWER- Vascular
smooth muscles; relaxation of SM (decreases TPR)
centrally acting sympatholytics and B-receptor blockers cause effects to which
organ? - ANSWER- Brain; decreases sympathetic outflows (decrease CO AND
TPR)
