Brief Summary:
relationship between the onset times of symptoms and the regions of patients presenting to the emergency department with hypertensive crisis systolic 180 andor diastolic 110 mmHg and the fluctuations in atmospheric pressure
Detailed Description:
Hypertensive emergency is defined as grade 3 hypertension systolic 180 andor diastolic 110 mmHg that causes end-organ damage requiring urgent intervention and intensive care admission Hypertensive crisis is described as severe hypertension not associated with end-organ damage Some sources define hypertensive crisis as hypertension of grade 3 or higher while others refer to it as severe hypertension without specifying a threshold
Literature reviews published guidelines and studies indicate that the definitions and treatment approaches for hypertensive crisis differ between Europe and America with variations in management from one physician to another Seasonal blood pressure fluctuations are influenced by external temperature indoor temperature humidity atmospheric pressure and wind Notably during periods of low atmospheric pressure blood pressure measurements show statistically significant increases compared to other days Consequently the frequency of life-threatening conditions associated with hypertension such as intracranial hemorrhage and abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture has been observed to increase on days when atmospheric pressure changes
In our study we aim to investigate the relationship between the onset times of symptoms and the regions of patients presenting to the emergency department with hypertensive crisis systolic 180 andor diastolic 110 mmHg and the fluctuations in atmospheric pressure
