Treatment of arterial hypertension has a number of general provisions on which the treatment of essential hypertension is under construction, retain their importance: adherence to a diet with restriction of salt and products that increase cholesterol; abolition of drugs that cause the development of hypertension
At the present stage, several factors of pathogenesis of renal arterial hypertension are singled out: sodium and water retention, pressor and depressor hormone dysregulation, increased free radical formation, kidney ischemia, gene disorders.
Arterial hypertension is a condition in which the systolic blood pressure level is equal to or greater than 140 mmHg. And / or the level of diastolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 90 mm Hg. With 3 different blood pressure measurements.
Metabolic alkalosis - a violation of the acid-base state, manifested by a decrease in hydrogen and chlorine ions in the extracellular fluid, high blood pH values and high concentration of bicarbonate in the blood.
Metabolic acidosis is a violation of the acid-base state, manifested by low blood pH values and low concentration of bicarbonate in the blood. In the practice of the therapist, metabolic acidosis is one of the most common disorders of the acid-base state.
Violations of the acid-base state - pathological reactions that are associated with a violation of the acid-base state. Isolate acidosis and alkalosis.
Hyperkalemia is the concentration of a potassium in serum 5.5 mEq/L, which develops as a result of an excess of total body potassium or due to abnormal movement of potassium from the cells.
Hypokalemia is a condition in which the potassium concentration in the blood serum is below 3.5 mmol / l (lead and more stringent criteria for hypokalemia - the potassium level is below 3.2 mmol / l).
