Hypertension and anesthesia: cause for concern.

D A Cross, J R Collins

    Southern Medical Journal
    |February 1, 1978

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Anesthetic management for hypertensive patients requires preoperative evaluation and treatment. For emergency surgery, control blood pressure with nitroprusside before intubation to ensure patient safety.

    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Cardiovascular Medicine
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Hypertension is a common comorbidity in surgical patients.
    • Managing hypertensive patients under anesthesia presents unique challenges.
    • Understanding the pathophysiology of hypertension is crucial for perioperative care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review current literature and clinical experience on anesthetic management of hypertensive patients.
    • To provide recommendations for preoperative evaluation and treatment of hypertension.
    • To outline strategies for managing blood pressure during emergency surgery in untreated hypertensive patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of anesthetic management in hypertensive patients.
    • Analysis of clinical experience with this patient population.
