Hypertension — resist the pressure Bashny.Net

Hypertension, a well — known ailment that is most commonly associated with old age. However, according to statistics, sick hypertension and every seventh inhabitant of the planet, but aware of their disease, only half of them.

A modern look at hypertension has evolved: cardiologists claim that before the disease will manifest itself in full force in the pathological process be sure to join the organs and hormonal system. Therefore, to treat hypertension are still needed before the blood pressure will appear high numbers systolic and diastolic pressure. Arutyunov Gregory Pavlovich, honored physician of the Russian Federation, shared with our readers the latest news about the proper treatment of hypertension.





Why it is important to control for davleniem recently, it was assumed that there is a high working pressure, poses no threat to human health, as his body was able to adapt to this load. Dr. Arutyunov argues that today the term "working pressure" is recognized as erroneous and uncontrolled hypertension even with average numbers of systolic and diastolic blood pressure is a deadly danger for the patient. Often the patient in this condition is in no hurry for the consultation of the doctor as feels OK.

However, according to Dr. Arutyunov, it is important to know about the "rule 20/10": the systematic increase in systolic blood pressure by 20 mm Hg.St., and diastolic by 10 the risk of premature death increases by 2 times. Dr. Arutyunov warns that over-the-top performance of the tonometer is sometimes less dangerous to the patient than the so-called working pressure. For example, intolerable headache systolic pressure of 175 mm Hg. article usually eliminates the intake of antihypertensive drugs.

The problem is that to reduce the pressure at least 20 mm Hg. article, a person is relieved and it calms down. However, not achieving the target pressure for extended periods of time increases the risk of death 4 times! Have hypertension is the favorite organs that are involved in the pathological process. Experts call them target organs. The first time this term was offered by the doctor of the naval hospital, US, who found that the man died from complications of hypertension, had a wrinkled kidney and a thick myocardium (muscular wall of the heart).

In addition, in arterial hypertension affects the brain and organs of sight. Thus, the risk of hypertension not only in the short-term poor state of health, but also in the pathological processes that destroy the target organs. It is therefore crucial early diagnosis of hypertension, suggesting a subsequent life-long treatment. Another danger of hypertension lies behind the palpitations. Every third hypertensive has a pulse greater than 80 beats per minute.

This rhythm triples the likelihood of myocardial infarction. Moreover, scientists have established the relationship between heart rate and life expectancy. The fact that the heart muscle is designed for about 3.5 billion of cuts, after which the reserve is exhausted of her work forever. Thus, tachycardia, including those resulting from hypertension, which inevitably reduces life expectancy.
