• Noncompliance

  […] pressure greater than 140/90 mmHg in patients who are treated with 3 antihypertensives, including a diuretic, or controlled hypertension on 4 or more agents.1 Resistant hypertension is distinct from non-controlled hypertension, which includes those noncompliant [education.questdiagnostics.com]

  Depending on the series, most apparently resistant hypertension is due to causes such as medication noncompliance, and inadequate drug doses or combinations (4,18). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Paul Palevsky: One of the major problems in assessing patients with apparent resistant hypertension is medication noncompliance. How do you suggest assessing whether a patient is compliant with his or her medications? Dr. [cjasn.asnjournals.org]

• Swelling

  Your body will retain more water and salt than it should, which can result in weight gain and ankle swelling. [mainlinehealth.org]

• Nausea

Diagnostic workup and management of resistant hypertension were discussed in different clinical presentations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

At baseline, clinical data were collected and patients underwent echocardiographic measurements, routine blood testing and additional workup for exclusion of secondary causes of RHT (office-based uncontrolled hypertension under at least 3 drugs including [onlinejacc.org]

INTRODUCTION: The effectiveness of renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) as a treatment for therapy-resistant hypertension has been doubted as the Simplicity-HTN-3 trial was unable to show any treatment benefit over sham procedure. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A total of 106 patients with resistant hypertension were randomly assigned to either RDN with medical treatment (treatment arm, n=52) or medical treatment alone (control arm, n=54). [revportcardiol.org]

CONCLUSIONS: ATRH entails a worse renal prognosis in T2D with hypertension. BP control is not associated with a more-favorable renal outcome in aTRH. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This article will describe how resistant hypertension is defined, its prevalence and prognosis, methods to diagnose it effectively in routine practice and strategies to effectively manage patients diagnosed with the condition. [heart.bmj.com]

Conclusions In treated hypertensive patients, among prospective RHT dynamic patterns, persistent RHT is frequent and independently associated with adverse cardiovascular prognosis. [onlinejacc.org]
