Hypertensive urgencies and emergencies.
Prim Care. 2006 Sep; 33(3):613-23, v.PC

Abstract

Hypertension management is a common reason for visits to primary care physicians. One third of patients with hypertension do not have controlled blood pressure, and may present to the physician's office with hypertensive urgencies or emergencies. How to define severely elevated blood pressure, appropriate triage, and the clinical evaluation of those with hypertensive urgencies or emergencies is reviewed. Suggestions for pharmacologic therapy and follow-up are offered.
