26. As a Sign
nurses and other health care professionals use BP to
monitor a patient’s clinical status.
Elevated pressure may indicate an excessive dose of
vasoconstrictive medication or other problems.
As a risk factor
hypertension contributes to rate at which
atherosclerotic plaque accumulates within arterial
walls.
As a disease
hypertension is a major contributor to death from
cardiac, renal, and peripheral vascular disease.

31. Multifactorial condition
Causes:
change in one or more factors affecting peripheral
resistance or cardiac output
problem with control systems that monitor or
regulate pressure.
Single gene mutations or polygenic (mutations in
more than one gene)
32. Stabilizing mechanisms exist in the body to
exert an overall regulation of systemic arterial
pressure and to prevent circu latory collapse.
Four control systems play a major role in
maintaining blood pressure: the arterial
baroreceptor system, regulation of body fluid
volume, the renin-angiotensinaldosterone
system, and vascular autoregulation.
33. found primarily in carotid sinus, also in aorta and wall of
left ventricle.
Monitor level of arterial pressure
counteracts rise in arterial pressure through vagally
mediated cardiac slowing and vasodilation with decreased
sympathetic tone.
Therefore reflex control of circulation elevates the
systemic arterial pressure when it falls and lowers it when
it rises.
Why this control fails in hypertension is unknown. There is
evidence for upward resetting of baroreceptor sensitivity
so that pressure rises are inadequately sensed even
though pressure decreases are not.
34. Changes in fluid volume also affect the systemic
arterial pressure.
excess of salt and water in a person's body, the blood
pressure rises through complex physiologic
mechanisms that change the venous return to the
heart, producing a rise in cardiac output.
If the kidneys are functioning adequately, a rise in
systemic arterial pressure produces diuresis and a fall
in pressure.
Pathologic conditions that change the pressure
threshold at which the kidneys excrete salt and water
alter the systemic arterial pressure.
35. Renin, angiotensin, and aldosterone also
regulate blood pressure
kidney produces renin
an enzyme that acts on a plasma protein
substrate to split off angiotensin I
which is converted by an enzyme in the lung to
form angiotensin II.
36. Angiotensin II
strong vasoconstrictor
is the controlling mechanism for aldosterone release.
With Aldosterone inhibit sodium excretion, resulting in an
elevation in blood pressure.
Inappropriate secretion of renin may cause increased
peripheral vascular resistance in essential (primary)
hypertension. In high blood pressure, renin levels
should be expected to fall because the increased renal
arteriolar pressure should inhibit renin secretion. In
most people with essential hypertension, however,
renin levels are normal.
37. The process of vascular autoregulation, which
keeps perfusion of tissues in the body
relatively constant, appears to be important
in causing hypertension accompanying salt
and water overload. This mechanism is poorly
understood.

Increased renal reabsorption of Na, Cl, and H20 r/t genetic
variation in pathways by which kidneys handle Na
Increased activity of RAAS, resulting in expansion of
extracellular fluid volume and increased systemic vascular
resistance
Decreased vasodilation of arterioles r/t dysfunction of
vascular endothelium
Resistance to insulin action
which may be a common factor linking hypertension, type 2 diabetes
mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia, obesity, and glucose intolerance
