概括
在儿童和青少年中发现二次高血压至关重要. 家庭病史,年龄较小,体重较低以及特定的血压模式等因素增加了对二次原因的怀疑.
科学领域:
- 儿童科和心脏病学
- 高血压的诊断准确性
背景情况:
- 目前的指导方针建议对所有儿童和青少年进行二次高血压原因的评估.
- 要避免不必要的诊断测试,必须区分初级高血压和二级高血压.
研究的目的:
- 评估临床病史,体检和24小时门诊血压监测 (ABPM) 的诊断效用,以区分儿科患者 (≤21岁) 的初级和二级高血压.
主要方法:
- 在主要数据库 (MEDLINE,PubMed Central,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library) 进行了系统的文献搜索,截至2022年1月.
- 包括的研究描述了患有初级和二级高血压的儿科患者的临床特征.
- 用随机效应建模合成数据,以计算各种临床发现的灵敏度,特异性和概率比率 (LR).
主要成果:
- 这项元分析包括了30项研究,共有4210名参与者;二次高血压的患病率在初级保健中为9. 0%,在分专科诊所中为44%.
- 二次高血压的强有力的指标包括家族史上的二次高血压 (LR,4. 7),低体重百分位 (LR,4. 5),早产史 (LR,2. 3 - 2. 8) 和年龄≤6岁 (LR,2. 2 - 2. 6).
- 显著的实验室发现是微白蛋白尿症 (LR, 13) 和血清尿酸低 (LR, 2. 1- 6. 3). 在ABPM (LR,4. 8) 上增加的白天心压和夜间心压也表明了二次高血压.
- 肥胖 (LR,0.34) 和任何高血压的家族史 (LR,0.42) 降低了二次高血压的可能性.
结论:
- 没有单一的临床征兆或症状可以确定二次高血压与初级高血压的区别.
- 包括二次高血压家族史,年龄较小,体重较低和特定的ABPM发现因素的组合增加了对二次高血压的怀疑.
- 这些发现有助于指导诊断策略,减少对初级高血压的不必要测试.

Hypertension III: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
36
Hypertension is asymptomatic and also referred to as the "silent killer" until it progresses to a severe stage or causes target organ disease. Patients may experience symptoms stemming from the strain on blood vessels and tissues in various organs or the heart's increased workload.Physical exams might show no abnormalities other than high blood pressure. Signs of vascular damage, when present, correspond to the organs supplied by the affected vessels, leading to target organ damage. For...

Hypertension I: Introduction
34
Hypertension is a widespread, long-term medical condition where blood pressure in the arteries remains elevated. It is characterized by systolic blood pressure readings of 130 mm Hg or above or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) readings of 80 mm Hg or higher. Unmanaged hypertension poses significant health risks, making the distinction between primary (or essential) hypertension and secondary hypertension crucial, as their management and implications vary.Primary HypertensionPrimary hypertension,...

Special considerations while measuring blood pressure
787
When assessing blood pressure (BP), healthcare professionals must consider various factors and potential unexpected outcomes to ensure accurate readings and provide proper patient care. Adhering to these guidelines is essential to achieving the most reliable results.
Monitoring Both Arms:
Monitoring BP in both arms during the initial assessment is advisable, as the systolic value may differ by five to ten mm Hg between arms. For subsequent BP assessments, use the arm with the higher reading.

Hypertension and Regulation of Blood Pressure
2.2K
Hypertension, the most common cardiovascular disease, is diagnosed through repeated measurements of elevated blood pressure. Its risks, including damage to the kidney, heart, and brain, are directly proportional to blood pressure levels. Starting from 115/75 mm Hg, the risk of cardiovascular disease doubles with each increment of 20/10 mm Hg. The diagnosis relies on blood pressure measurements, not on patient symptoms, as hypertension is often asymptomatic until end-organ damage is imminent or...

Pre-Procedural Guidelines for Assessing Blood Pressure
605
Accurate blood pressure assessment is crucial for diagnosing and managing various health conditions. To ensure the reliability of these measurements, healthcare professionals must adhere to standardized pre-procedural guidelines. These guidelines enhance patient safety and improve the overall quality of healthcare. The following steps are essential for obtaining accurate and consistent blood pressure readings, from using the appropriate tools to ensuring effective communication with the...

Hypertension V: Nursing Management
16
The nursing management of hypertension involves accurately assessing symptoms, making a comprehensive nursing diagnosis, collaborating with patients to set goals, and implementing targeted interventions to mitigate the condition's impact and improve patient well-being.Comprehensive AssessmentThe initial step in nursing care for hypertension involves a thorough patient assessment. It includes evaluating symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, and previous hypertension episodes.
