  2. Management of hypertension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_of_hypertension

    Hypertension is usually treated to achieve a blood pressure of below 140/90 mmHg to 160/100 mmHg. According to one 2003 review, reduction of the blood pressure by 5 mmHg can decrease the risk of stroke by 34% and of ischaemic heart disease by 21% and reduce the likelihood of dementia, heart failure, and mortality from cardiovascular disease.

    Evidence suggests that a reduction of blood pressure by 5 mmHg can decrease the risk of stroke by 34% and of ischaemic heart disease by 21%. It can reduce the likelihood of dementia, heart failure, and mortality from cardiovascular disease. [2] There are many classes of antihypertensives, which lower blood pressure by different means.

    Much of the disease burden of high blood pressure is experienced by people who are not labeled as hypertensive. [101] Consequently, population strategies are required to reduce the consequences of high blood pressure and reduce the need for antihypertensive medications. Lifestyle changes are recommended to lower blood pressure.

  5. Baroreflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baroreflex

    Atrial natriuretic peptide: When the atrium stretches, blood pressure is considered to be increased and sodium is excreted to lower blood pressure. Renin-angiotensin system : When the blood flow through the juxtaglomerular apparatus decreases, blood pressure is considered low, and the adrenal cortex secretes aldosterone to increase sodium ...

  6. Indapamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indapamide

    Indapamide has been shown to reduce stroke rates in people with high blood pressure. [ 7 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Studies have shown that the blood pressure lowering effects of indapamide in combination with perindopril reduce the rate of stroke in high risk patients (those with a history of high blood pressure, stroke or type two diabetes).

  7. Management of heart failure - Wikipedia

    The aim of the procedures is to reduce the ventricle diameter (targeting Laplace's law and the disease mechanism of heart failure), improve its shape and/or remove non-viable tissue. [50] These procedures can be performed together with coronary artery bypass surgery or mitral valve repair.
