PREVENTION, DETECTION, EVALUATION, AND MANAGEMENT OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE IN ADULTS Thomas F. Whayne, Jr, MD, PhD, FACC, FAHA, FACP Professor of Medicine (Cardiology) University of Kentucky Gill Heart Institute NOVEMBER 2018 No conflicts to disclose Email: [email protected] (0 number zero) (0 is the number zero) Educational Need/Practice Gap Regarding hypertension, the major practice gap is failure to adequately control BP. Tight BP control as in JNC-7 is less with unofficial JNC-8 (2013) but nevertheless, the need for adequate treatment must still be emphasized. Now, the 2015 NIH study appears more like JNC-7, followed by additional guidelines, all adding to the confusion. Good judgment in clinical practice is still the order of the day. Objectives • Review the latest guidelines and evidence- based medicine for the treatment of hypertension. • Discuss specific mechanisms involved in the causation of hypertension and how this affects treatment. • Summarize specific invasive techniques for the difficult patient whose hypertension does not respond to medications. Expected Outcome Approximately 75% of hypertensive patients are not adequately managed. This is in part the fault of many patients but also there is failure of clinicians to push for maximal beneficial results. Hopefully, a consideration of available information and medications will emphasize the possibilities for improved BP control. Hypertension pts.

NIH Publication 04-5230, 2004. “JNC” 8 (2013)* • JNC 8 is Eighth Joint National Commission. • The panel lost its NIH sponsorship and went ahead anyway with an unofficial guideline even though the NIH decided to turn guidelines over to the ACC/AHA. • Panel recommended liberalized BP goals of: – Age 60 and over. • BP less than 150/90. – Age 30 to 60 and under age 30. • BP less than 140/90. **James PA, et al.
