  • Use of oral contraceptives or other drugs, such as cocaine, epoetin alfa, and cyclosporine, steroids.

    Signs and symptoms

    • Cerebral symptoms: headache, dizziness, buzzing in the ears and head, irritation (due to disorders of vessel tone, their widening is changed spasm. It results in disorders of cerebral circulation. There is an irritation of the cerebral vessels by increased BP).

    • Cardiac symptoms: heart pain, palpitation and interruption of the heart bit

    • General symptoms: fatigue, sleep disorders, decreasing work ability

    Visual examination: flush of the face and sclera. Pulse is hard, intense.

    Apex bit is heaving, undisplaced to the left, and resistant. The left border of relative heart dullness drifts left due to hypertrophy left ventricle.

    On auscultation diminished S1 (muscle component) on the apex, and accented S2 on the aorta (high pressure) are heard.

    Investigations

    Serial blood pressure measurements that are greater than 140/90 mm Hg in people under confirm hypertension

    We can use a dairy BP monitoring: measuring BP every 15 min during day and every 30 min during night with following computer reading.

    Ophthalmoscopy reveals arteriovenous nicking and, in hypertensive encephalopathy, papilledema.

    Hypertensive retinopathy

    I. Tortuous arteries with thick shiny walls (silver or copper wiring)

    II. a-v nipping (narrowing where arteries cross veins)

    III. Flame haemorrhages and cotton wool spots

    IV. Papilloedema.

    • Urinalysis: The presence of protein, red blood cells, and white blood cells may indicate glomerulonephritis.

    Only proteinuria means renal complication of hypertension

    • Excretory urography: Renal atrophy indicates chronic kidney disease; one kidney that is more than 5/8 (1.5 cm) shorter than the other suggests unilateral kidney disease.

    • Serum potassium: Levels less than 3.5 mEq/L may indicate adrenal dysfunction (primary hyperaldosteronism).

    • Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine levels: A BUN level that is normal or elevated to more than 20 mg/dl and a serum creatinine level that is normal or elevated to more than 1.5 mg/dl suggest kidney disease.

    Other tests help detect cardiovascular damage and other complications:

    • Electrocardiography may show left ventricular hypertrophy or ischemia (depressed ST segment and negative T-wave in I, II, AVL, V4-6).

    • Chest X-ray may show cardiomegaly.

    • Echocardiography may show left ventricular hypertrophy. There are thickened left ventricular walls, interventricular septum.

    • Renal arteriography may show renal artery stenosis.

    Classification and clinical presentation of the essential hypertension:

    • I stage – episodic elevation of BP with cerebral, cardiac and general symptoms without any other signs except high BP

    • ІІ stage: Permanent symptoms and signs of affect of the target organs without their failure:

    Heart left ventricle hypertrophy ( sings, ECG, Ehocardiography, X-Ray)

    eye grounds- hypertensive retinopathy I-II

    Kidneyproteinuria, increased blood creatinine (male 115-133 mcmol/l or 1,3-1,5 mg/dl, female 107-124 mcmol/l or 1,2-1,4 mcmol/l)

    • ІІІ stage - Permanent symptoms and signs of affect of the target organs with their failure (complicated stage)

    Heart myocardial infartion, heart failure ІІ-ІІІ st.

    Brain - cerebrovascular accident, chronic hypertensive encephalopathy ІІІ st. and vassel dementia

    Eye grounds- hypertensive retinopathy III- IV

    Kidneyproteinuria, increased blood creatinine (male >133 mcmol/l or >1,5 mg/dl, female >124 mcmol/l or >1,4 mcmol/l), chronic renal failure

    Vasselsaortic dissecting aneurysm

    Clinical presentation of the hypertensic crisis

    Sudden increasing BP in the patients with hypertension which is accompanied significant change in the target organs.

    There are two types of the hypertensic crisis I type (adrenal crisis) and II type (nor-adrenal crisis)

    І type

    • Occur during I or II stage of hypertension

    • Fast beginning (several hours)

    • SBP > DBP

    • Intensive vegetative disorders (headache, trembling, palpitation, flush, frequent urination)

    • Visual examination: flush of the face and sclera

    • Duration: several hours, usually complications are absent.

    ІІ type

    • Occur during II or III stage of hypertension

    • Slow developing (dozens hours or several days)

    • DBP>SBP

    • Continuing dairy

    • Symptoms: disorders of eyesight, limb numbness, nausea, vomiting, headache, nose bleeding

    • There are the target organs complications: brain: cerebrovascular accident, retina: blindness, heart: myocardial infarction, acute heart failure, pulmonary oedem,kidneys: proteinuria, edema and renal failure.
