The patient was discharged and was lost to follow-up until he presented again in 2012 for 'resistant hypertension' in our outpatient clinic. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Fatigue

  After the initial visit, the patient presented to the clinic with complaints of dizziness and fatigue and was found to be hypotensive. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  He reports compliance with his medication regimen, and does not report any specific intolerances that he attributes to medications, but does note that he has a dry mouth, feels fatigued, and has excessive daytime sleepiness. Continue [clevelandclinicmeded.com]

  As an aside, the fatigue and dry mouth were attributed to the β-blocker and the alpha 2 -agonist, supporting the adherence he claimed to his BP regimen. [cjasn.asnjournals.org]

• Short Stature

  A radial access was chosen because the patient was very obese and of short stature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Intermittent Claudication

  Patients with intermittent claudication, stenosis of the major arteries of the legs in arteriography or Doppler ultrasound, presence of ulcers caused by atherosclerotic disease, revascularisation or amputation due to ischaemia were diagnosed of peripheral [revistanefrologia.com]

• Nausea

  Have your blood pressure and blood glucose levels tested regularly and see a kidney specialist if you experience fluid retention in your legs, ankles, feet or face; have unexplained fatigue, headache, nausea or vomiting. [mainlinehealth.org]

  Symptoms of a hypertensive crisis may include severe chest pain and headache, blurred vision, nausea, anxiety and shortness of breath. The affected person might also be unresponsive or have seizures. [idorsia.com]

• Ejection Murmur

  Physical exam revealed a systolic ejection murmur, and ECHO demonstrated moderate hypertrophy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Impulsivity

• Prostatic Disease

  Long-acting alpha-blockers such as doxazosin are particularly appealing in older men who may have prostate disease, unless they are already on prostate therapy with an alpha-blocker. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Headache

  We report the case of a 34-year-old male patient who presented with generalized weakness, poorly controlled hypertension, nocturnal hypertension spikes, and morning headaches. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Such actions may include: Skipping your medication : When you take an aspirin and your headache goes away, you know the aspirin is working. [hopkinsmedicine.org]

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]

In addition, this paper will attempt to provide a rational for the workup and treatment of patients with resistant hypertension. 2. [hindawi.com]

• Aldosterone Decreased

  On administration of pioglitazone (30 mg/d) and nifedipine (40 mg/d), hypertension and hypokalemia improved and plasma aldosterone decreased for more than 6 months. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hyperaldosteronemia

  Although it is the most used screening method in patients with suspected primary hyperaldosteronemia, given the low prevalence of this condition, the screening tests are reserved for those patients with resistant hypertension or hypertension associated [scielo.org.co]

Our conclusion is that optimising medical treatment based on simple algorithms remains the state of the art in treatment-resistant hypertension. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

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]

The etiology of resistance hypertension is multifactorial. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In the etiological study of hypertension, several analytical alterations were identified, and they are explained in table 1. [scielo.org.co]
