Management
Antihypertensive drugs
Evaluation for target organ damage
Investigation of causes
Supportive management
a. Antihypertensive drugs
Should be initiated prior to obtaining the results of
BP measure:
@ 1-3 hour
Intravenous or Oral anti hypertensive
Lowering BP
25-30% in 8-12 hour
b. Investigation of causes
Evaluations:
- causes
- co-morbidity
- target organ damage
Evaluation should be individualized
Majority causes: renoparenchym or renovascular
screening to this condition
Diagnostic tests:
Urinalysis
BUN,SC
CBC
d. Supportive management
Short acting
Can be titrated
