This document provides guidelines for screening and managing hypertension in children and adolescents. It defines hypertension as blood pressure above the 95th percentile for age, gender and height on 3 occasions. Secondary causes are more common in children and include conditions like renal disease, coarctation of aorta, and endocrine disorders. Treatment involves lifestyle modifications and medications, with the goal of reducing blood pressure below the 90th percentile. For hypertensive emergencies, the aim is to lower blood pressure more gradually to prevent end-organ damage.
