HYPERTENSIVE EMERGENCIES

A hypertensive emergency is high vital sign with potentially life-threatening . Hypertensive urgency is defined as having a systolic vital sign over 180 mmHg or a diastolic vital sign over 110 mmHg. Hypertensive emergency is defined as elevated vital sign according to hypertensive urgency, plus evidence of impending irreversible hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD).
Symptoms may include headache, nausea, or vomiting. pain may occur thanks to increased workload on the guts leading to inadequate delivery of oxygen to satisfy the guts muscle's metabolic needs. The kidneys could also be affected, leading to blood or protein within the urine, and acute renal failure . People can have decreased urine production, fluid retention, and confusion.
Massive, rapid elevations in vital sign can trigger any of those symptoms, and warrant further work-up by physicians. Physical exam findings would be performed to be measurement of vital sign in both arms. Laboratory tests to be conducted include urine toxicology, blood sugar , a basic metabolic panel evaluating kidney function, or an entire metabolic panel evaluating liver function, EKG, chest x-rays, and pregnancy screening
The eyes may show bleeding within the retina, an exudate, cotton-wool spots, scattered splinter hemorrhages, or swelling of the blind spot called papilledema.
