Document Summary
Cardiovascular disease - hypertension & exercise = #3 factor. Transitory/sustained elevation of systemic arterial blood pressure to level likely to: induce cardiovascular, result in other adverse. *may benefit from pharmalogical/therapeutic intervention + lifestyle = diet & exericse. Classification & management of blood pressure for adults (cid:1005)8 y. o. Normal aging-related increase sbp & modest/no change in dbp from 35-74 y. o. So prevalence of hypertension = increase with age particularly due to sbp. Relative frequency of #1 primary & #2 secondary hypertension. #1 primary hypertension : unknown etiology/cause or b) result of genetic/physiological/behavioral/environmental factors. Map = cotv(cid:2895) so co w/ no increase in tvk. Map = co tv(cid:2895) so tvk w/ no decrease in co. Dysfunction = water sodium absorption so plasma volume expansion map. Or pns so no relaxation so tvr = map. Known etiology/cause: renal hypertension, renal hypertension, endocrine hypertension. Derangement/kidney inability in renal handling of na+ & h2o. Leading to volume expansion/alteration in renal secretion of.
