Refractory or Resistant Hypertension

Refractory or resistant hypertension is defined as a blood pressure of at least 140/90mmHg or at least 130/80mmHg in patients with diabetes or renal disease (i.e., with a creatinine level of more than 1.5mg/dL or urinary protein excretion of more than 300mg over a 24-h period), despite adherence to treatment with full doses of at least three antihypertensive medications, including a diuretic [13].
In order to diagnose refractory hypertension, various fac­tors that needs to be considered are secondary causes of hypertension (Table16.8), improper blood pressure measure­ment, volume overload, competing substances, obesity, non­adherence to treatment, inadequate doses or inappropriate combinations of medications, alcohol consumption, and other substances (Table16.6).
Establishing a diagnosis - Blood pressure >140/90 or 130/80 mm Hg in patients with diabetes or chronic kidney disease and patient prescribed 3 or more antihypertensive medications at optimal doses, including a diuretic
Is patient adherent with prescribed regimen? Obtain home, work, or ambulatory blood pressure readings to exclude white coat effect or masked hypertension (exclude pseudoresistance)
Identify and Modify Lifestyle Factors: Obesity, Physical inactivity, Excessive alcohol consumption, high salt low fiber diet. NSAIDS, Sympathomimetics (diet pills, decongestants), Stimulants, Oral contraceptives or other drugs need to be evaluated and discontinued.
Evaluate Secondary Causes of Hypertension - Obstructive sleep apnea, Primary Aldosteronism, Chronic kidney disease, Renal artery stenosis, Pheochromocytoma, Cushing’s syndrome & Coarctation of Aorta
Pharmacologic Treatment - Maximize diuretic therapy, including possible addition of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, Combine agents with different mechanisms of action, Use loop diuretics in patients with chronic kidney disease and/or patients receiving potent vasodilators (e.g. Minoxidil)
Refer to appropriate specialist for known or suspected secondary cause(s) of hypertension or refer to hypertension specialist if blood pressure remains uncontrolled after 6 months of treatment

Role ofDigital Health inHypertension
Digital health innovations for hypertension include blood pressure sensors (cuffless monitors), smartphone-enabled upper arm blood pressure monitors, mobile applications, and remote monitoring technologies. Wearable trackers have the potential to improve hypertension control and medication adherence through real-time capture of clinical data, better connectivity with health care providers and medication reminder alerts. With increasing emphasis on home and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to confirm hyperten­sion prior to treatment, such devices also can help improve the diagnostic and treatment paradigm.
For wider adoption, device manufacturers and clinical researchers should collaborate on the development of clinical trials and evidence based guidelines for better clinical out­comes associated with emerging technologies.
Clinical Pearls
• Hypertension in its early stages is an asymptomatic pro-
cess and has no clinical manifestations.
• Hypertension is preventable and an independent risk fac-
tor for end organ damage: myocardial infraction, stroke,
heart failure, retinopathy, peripheral arterial disease, and
end-stage renal disease (hypertension-mediated organ
damage―HMOD).
330
J. Barmecha
• Social determinants and behavioral factors play an impor-
tant role in the development of hypertension and its
related complications.
• Lifestyle management including diet and physical activity
are an integral part of blood pressure control along with
pharmacological interventions.
• Adequate screening and control of blood pressure is an
important clinical quality measure.
Don’t Miss This!
• Hypertension can be either isolated systolic or diastolic or
both systolic and diastolic.
• Secondary causes of hypertension should be assessed in
patients with resistant hypertension.
• Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is a use-
ful tool in the management of hypertension.
• All antihypertensive medications have serious side
effects especially ACE inhibitors, ARBs (angiotensin
receptor blocker), and renin inhibitors that can cause
fetal abnormalities and should be avoided in women of
childbearing age.
• While prescribing pharmacological agents, one should
consider associated medical illnesses and patient’s prefer-
ences including cost of the medications.

Chest Pain

Chest Pain
Chest pain is a common clinical presentation encountered in the outpatient setting [1]. A systematic approach is required for timely diagnosis and management. The etiology for chest pain ranges from benign to potentially life-threatening causes [2]. Early identification of life-threatening causes and triaging to a higher level of care from an office setting is vital. In this chapter, we will review essential history, physical exam, and diagnosis strategies in the ambulatory setting. Chest pain is anxiety provoking in patients. Therefore, in addition to mak­ing the diagnosis, alleviating the patient’s anxiety for benign causes of chest pain is essential.

History

Eliciting an accurate history is a crucial first step in making an accurate diagnosis. Using an open-ended style of question­ing gives important clues about the underlying etiology. “Can

you tell me more about the pain?” should be the first ques­tion. Then, teasing out further details regarding the onset, duration, precipitating factors, character, radiation, associa­tion with food, exertion, respiration, any history of similar pain, and the relation of pain to the movement of the upper extremities and neck are significant to note. After trying open-ended questioning, close-ended questions can be used to further clarify the diagnosis.
Past medical history of cardiovascular risk factors includ­ing diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic inflam­matory conditions, and surgical history of cardiac procedures increases the likelihood of coronary artery disease. In addi­tion, smoking and cocaine use history and family history of cardiac disease should also be reviewed.

Physical Exam

Blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and respiratory rate provide crucial diagnostic information. Jugular venous dis­tention, examination of bilateral pulses, cardiopulmonary auscultation, and assessment of pedal edema are important. Inspection of the skin of the chest, palpation of the chest wall for tenderness, and active movements of the neck and both upper extremities should be performed based on the elicited history.

Differential Diagnosis

The causes can be broadly divided into:
1. Cardiac chest pain (Fig.17. 1 )
2. Non-cardiac chest pain (Fig.1 7. 2 )
The clinical features of various chest pain presentations are presented below.
