Lifestyle modifications are the foundation for preventing hypertension, and they are an important component of first-line therapy in all patients treated with antihypertensive drug therapy. Non-pharmacologic management of hypertension should be prescribed to all patients with elevated blood pressure or hypertension; however, not all patients diagnosed with hypertension require pharmacologic therapy.
7. scientific rationale for preventive practices in hypertensive cardiovascularHibaAnis2
This document discusses scientific rationale for preventive practices in hypertensive cardiovascular disease. It covers non-modifiable risk factors like family history, age, race, and obesity. Lifestyle modifications that can help prevent and treat hypertension include weight loss, following a healthy diet like DASH, reducing sodium intake, limiting alcohol consumption, and engaging in physical activity and stress reduction techniques.
This document discusses hypertension, also known as high blood pressure. It begins by defining hypertension and noting that it is a major global health issue, including in Bangladesh where approximately 20-40% of adults suffer from it. The document then covers classifications of hypertension, potential causes including lifestyle and genetic factors, common complications affecting organs like the brain, eyes, heart and kidneys, diagnostic evaluations, and management through lifestyle modifications and pharmacological therapies like diuretics and beta blockers. The goal of treatment is to control blood pressure and prevent complications.
Management of Hypertension in Diabetic Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: ...O. E.Nyandi PhD
Diabetes is associated with markedly increased cardiovascular risk, a risk compounded with imposition of chronic kidney disease (CKD). More than 80% of people with diabetes and CKD have hypertension, and many have an obliterated nocturnal blood pressure “dip,” the normal physiological drop in blood pressure during sleep. Appropriate blood pressure measurement is the Achilles heel of hypertension management, especially in diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Diabetes is associated with markedly increased cardiovascular risk, a risk compounded with imposition of chronic kidney disease (CKD). More than 80% of people with diabetes and CKD have hypertension, and many have an obliterated nocturnal blood pressure “dip,” the normal physiological drop in blood pressure during sleep. Appropriate blood pressure measurement is the Achilles heel of hypertension management, especially in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). The prevalence of kidney disease and diabetes is increasing among the people of the Pacific with an unknown proportion having metabolic syndrome. The preponderance of those with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) will not progress to kidney failure, but rather will succumb to cardiovascular disease (CVD).
This document provides guidelines for the treatment of hypertension. It discusses the definition and classification of hypertension according to the JNC 7 report. Evaluation of patients involves measuring blood pressure accurately, assessing risk factors, checking for target organ damage, and identifying secondary causes. Treatment goals depend on patient population, with the general goal being under 140/90 mmHg. Initial drug therapy involves thiazide diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or CCBs. Lifestyle modifications including salt restriction, moderation of alcohol, regular exercise, weight control, and smoking cessation are also recommended.
Behavior Modification for Cardiovascular risk factor reductionnihal Ashraf
There is little controversy over the benefits to cardiovascular health of not smoking, eating a well balanced diet, maintaining mental well-being, taking regular exercise and keeping active, as demonstrated in large cohort studies.
These health behaviours also play an etiological role in other noncommunicable diseases, such as cancer, respiratory disease, diabetes, osteoporosis and liver disease (WHO., 2003), which makes interventions to promote them potentially very cost-effective.
However, there is considerable uncertainty about the best ways of helping people at high CVD risk to modify their behaviour.
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a condition where the blood vessels have persistently raised pressure. Several risk factors can increase one's chances of developing hypertension, including age, family history, being overweight, lack of physical activity, too much salt/not enough potassium in the diet, drinking too much alcohol, stress, and certain medical conditions. Lifestyle changes like losing weight, quitting smoking, following a healthy diet like the DASH diet, and increasing physical activity can help treat and prevent high blood pressure. Drug treatment may involve ACE inhibitors, ARBs, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics. Regular checkups are important for hypertensive patients after starting treatment to

Hypertension is highly prevalent in the elderly population. The risk of hypertension increases dramatically with age, with over 90% of people over 70 having hypertension. In the elderly, hypertension is characterized by an elevated systolic blood pressure with a normal or low diastolic blood pressure due to arterial stiffening caused by reduced elasticity of arteries with age. Multiple changes occur in the arteries with aging that result in increased systolic blood pressure and decreased diastolic blood pressure. Hypertension is the most important modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease in the elderly. Lifestyle modifications and medication are effective for treating hypertension in the elderly, with the goal of reducing blood pressure and cardiovascular risk.

Hypertension is high blood pressure that can lead to severe heart and other health problems if left untreated. It is often asymptomatic until advanced stages. Treatment may involve lifestyle changes like exercise and diet or medications to lower blood pressure. While those with hypertension can usually exercise moderately, untreated hypertension can impair exercise ability. Managing hypertension is important for reducing health risks in older adults.

The document discusses approaches to preventing cardiovascular disease, including primary and secondary prevention. It outlines various risk factors and strategies for prevention at both the population level and for high-risk individuals. These include promoting smoking cessation, controlling blood pressure and lipids, increasing physical activity, maintaining a healthy diet and weight, and using medication like aspirin to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
SELF CARE IN HYPERTENSION by Dr. Alechenu.pptxIbrahimHamis2
This document provides an outline and overview of a presentation on self care practices for hypertension. It discusses the definition and epidemiology of hypertension, highlighting its prevalence globally and in some regions of Nigeria. The pathophysiology of essential hypertension is explained, noting the involvement of the kidney and brain. Common risk factors are identified. Self care practices recommended for patients with mild to moderate hypertension without other conditions include lifestyle modifications like weight control, physical activity, reducing sodium intake, following a DASH diet, cessation of smoking and alcohol, and relaxation techniques. Education of patients is also emphasized.
This document discusses several studies related to blood pressure and hypertension. The Improving the Detection of Hypertension trial found that home blood pressure monitoring over 1 week may be the most reliable method for diagnosing hypertension. The JAMP trial found that nighttime blood pressure levels and a rising pattern were associated with higher risk of cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure. The OSLO-ISCHEMIA study found that increased exercise systolic blood pressure was associated with greater risk of coronary heart disease over many years of follow up. Dietary approaches like the DASH diet were shown to lower blood pressure when combined with sodium restriction.
The JNC 8 guideline provides evidence-based recommendations for treating hypertension. It focuses on three key questions: 1) what BP thresholds should initiate treatment, 2) what treatment goals are appropriate, and 3) which drug classes are most effective and safe. Major recommendations include treating those over 60 to a goal of <150/90 mmHg, initiating treatment in others at 140/90 mmHg, and using thiazide diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or CCBs as initial treatment. The guideline aims to simplify prior recommendations and focus on outcomes from randomized controlled trials.
Hypertensive nephropathy is kidney damage caused by long-standing high blood pressure. It involves thickening of the walls of small arteries in the kidneys which reduces blood flow and causes scarring. Risk factors include a family history of high blood pressure, older age, unhealthy habits like smoking, and illnesses like diabetes. Symptoms include high blood pressure, swelling, fatigue, breathing difficulties, and changes in urination. Treatment focuses on controlling blood pressure through lifestyle changes and medications like ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcium channel blockers, and diuretics. If kidney function declines significantly, dialysis or kidney transplantation may be required.
This document summarizes guidelines for the treatment and management of hypertension. It discusses stages of hypertension and treatment thresholds. Lifestyle modifications like following the DASH diet, reducing sodium intake, weight loss, and exercise are recommended first line approaches. If goals are not met with lifestyle changes alone, pharmacologic therapy with diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcium channel blockers, and beta blockers is recommended. Specific considerations and guidelines are provided for managing hypertension in special populations like those with diabetes, pregnancy, the elderly, and black patients.
This document discusses weight control strategies for patients with metabolic syndrome. It defines metabolic syndrome as a constellation of risk factors that promote cardiovascular disease. Weight loss through diet and exercise is the first-line treatment, aiming for 7-10% weight loss in the first year. Bariatric surgery may be considered for patients with a BMI over 40 or over 35 with comorbidities if medical treatment fails. The risks and types of bariatric surgeries are outlined, noting that surgery provides the greatest sustainable weight loss for treating metabolic syndrome and reducing cardiovascular risk factors.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

2. • Lifestyle modifications are the foundation for preventing
hypertension, and they are an important component of first-line
therapy in all patients treated with antihypertensive drug therapy.
• Non-pharmacologic management of hypertension should be
prescribed to all patients with elevated blood pressure or
hypertension; however, not all patients diagnosed with
hypertension require pharmacologic therapy.
3.

5. OVERWEIGHT, OBESITY, AND WEIGHT
REDUCTION IN HYPERTENSION
• Increased adiposity, whether assessed as higher body mass index
(BMI), higher weight, larger waist circumference, or longitudinal
weight gain, is strongly associated with higher blood pressure and
development of hypertension
• Excess body weight (including overweight and obesity) accounts
for a larger attributable fraction of hypertension.
7. OVERWEIGHT, OBESITY, AND WEIGHT
REDUCTION IN HYPERTENSION
• Overweight and obesity may raise blood pressure through a variety
of mechanisms, including renal injury, insulin resistance, sleep-
disordered breathing, and increased sympathetic activity induced
by the leptin-melanocortin pathway
• Weight loss can lower blood pressure and, along with other
lifestyle interventions, is recommended in hypertensive patients
who are overweight or obese
• Beta blockers may make weight reduction more difficult to
8. DIET IN THE TREATMENT AND PREVENTION
OF HYPERTENSION
• A diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and low-fat dairy
products and low in snacks, sweets, and meats (such as the
Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension [DASH] diet) may lower
BP and prevent hypertension.
• Low intake of sodium and high intake of potassium (or potassium
supplementation) can reduce BP.
• High-dose, but not low-dose, fish oil supplements may reduce
systemic BP.
9. DIET IN THE TREATMENT AND PREVENTION
OF HYPERTENSION
• Other dietary interventions that may be associated with reduced BP
include dietary fiber, magnesium, soy (vegetable) or dairy protein
intake, folate, and possibly polyphenols (eg, flavonoids).
• Dietary calcium and calcium supplements have a relatively small
effect on BP. The effect of supplemental calcium on BP is too small
to recommend the use of calcium supplements for the therapy or
prevention of hypertension.
• High-dose, but not low-dose, fish oil supplements may reduce
systemic BP.
10. • Exercise is classified as dynamic aerobic, dynamic resistance, and
isometric resistance.
• Most patients who are capable of exercising, whether
normotensive or hypertensive, should be advised to perform
moderate-intensity and/or vigorous-intensity dynamic aerobic
exercise. Aerobic exercise lowers blood pressure in normotensive
individuals and is associated with a reduced incidence of
hypertension and a lower mortality rate
11. • Aerobic exercise lowers blood pressure in normotensive
individuals and is associated with a reduced incidence of
hypertension and a lower mortality rate
12. • A medical evaluation is usually unnecessary prior to either
prescribing exercise or reinforcing the patient's current level of
physical activity (if adequate).
• There is no one exercise prescription for all adults. In general,
reasonable weekly goals for dynamic aerobic exercise are at least
150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity
(approximately 30 minutes per day, five or more days per week) or
at least 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity
(approximately 30 minutes per day, three or more days per week).
13. • Exercise testing is recommended in some, but not most, patients
who start an exercise program. In general, sedentary patients with
known or, based upon signs and symptoms, suspected
cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or kidney disease should
undergo exercise testing before embarking on an exercise plan
• Among those already engaged in moderate- or vigorous-intensity
physical activity, new signs or symptoms of cardiovascular disease
should prompt a cessation of exercise until further testing can be
done
14. • The available evidence supports dynamic aerobic exercise as a
means to lower blood pressure and prevent and control
hypertension. The evidence supporting resistance exercise is less
compelling.
• There is no one exercise prescription that is appropriate for all
adults. The prescription should be individualized to the patient's
capabilities and to prevent injuries and maximize incentives for
maintaining a consistent regimen.
16. REDUCED INTAKE OF DIETARY SODIUM
• A high dietary intake of sodium is associated with elevated blood
pressure (BP) and the development of hypertension.
17. REDUCED INTAKE OF DIETARY SODIUM
• In general, the extent of BP reduction as a
result of reduced sodium intake is greater in
Black patients, middle- and older-aged
persons, individuals with hypertension, and,
likely, patients with diabetes or kidney disease.
• In hypertensive individuals, a reasonable goal
is to reduce daily sodium intake to <100 mEq
(2.3 g of sodium or 6 g of sodium
chloride)/day. Further reduction to
approximately 50 mmol/day has an even
18. CARDIOVASCULAR RISKS AND BENEFITS OF
MODERATE ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
• The 2020 to 2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans define
moderate drinking as having up to one drink per day for females
and up to two drinks per day for males.
• Definitions of a "standard drink" differ, both within and between
countries, with a standard drink containing from as few as 8
grams of alcohol to as many as 20 grams of alcohol.
20. CARDIOVASCULAR RISKS AND BENEFITS OF
MODERATE ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
• Multiple studies have shown an association between excess
alcohol intake and the development of hypertension. However,
light to moderate alcohol consumption may be beneficial in
reducing the risk of hypertension.
• In a meta-analysis of 36 trials, a decrease in alcohol intake
reduced blood pressure in people who drank more than two drinks
per day; however, a reduction was not seen in those consuming
two or fewer drinks per day
21. CARDIOVASCULAR RISKS AND BENEFITS OF
MODERATE ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
• On the other hand, moderate alcohol intake appears to have a
cardioprotective effect, even in patients with preexisting
hypertension.
• A 2014 meta-analysis of nine cohort studies including over
390,000 patients with hypertension found that, compared with
abstainers or occasional drinkers, those who consumed 8 to 10
grams of alcohol per day had a decreased risk for all-cause
mortality (RR 0.82, 95% CI 0.76-0.88).
22. CARDIOVASCULAR RISKS AND BENEFITS OF
MODERATE ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION
• Individuals who are not currently drinking, or those who have a
personal preference to avoid alcohol, should not be advised to
consume alcohol solely for the purpose of CVD risk reduction.
• Patients who have an underlying medical condition that precludes
alcohol use (e.g., alcohol use disorder, liver disease, etc.) should not
be advised to consume alcohol and seek counseling, if needed, to
abstain from alcohol.
• Patients who choose to drink moderate amounts of alcohol, such as
those who drink alcohol less than one unit per day (or less than 15 g
23. SMOKING AND HYPERTENSION
• The acute effects of cigarette
smoking are related to sympathetic
nervous system overactivity, which
leads to an increase in blood
pressure, heart rate, myocardial
contractility, and myocardial oxygen
consumption.
• The rise in blood pressure with each
cigarette is transient, even among
those who smoke regularly; this
transient blood pressure increase
24. SMOKING AND HYPERTENSION
• There are inconsistent data that tobacco smoking raises blood pressure
chronically or increases the incidence of hypertension. Those who smoke
habitually often have lower blood pressure than nonsmokers, which
might be related to a generally lower body weight compared with
nonsmokers and the vasodilatory effects of cotinine, the major
metabolite of nicotine.
• However, cigarette smoking increases the risk of masked hypertension
(normal blood pressure in the office but elevated blood pressure outside
of the office environment), renovascular hypertension, severe
25. SMOKING AND HYPERTENSION
• Acute e-cigarette use appears to be associated with a mild, short-term
increase in diastolic blood pressure and a mild, short-term increase or
no effect on systolic blood pressure. Data are limited on the chronic
blood pressure effects of e-cigarettes.
• Indirect and direct evidence suggest that smoking by hookah has blood
pressure and other cardiovascular effects that are similar to traditional
cigarette smoking.
