OUTCOME OF BLOOD PRESSURE CONTROL
International Journal for Quality in Health Care, 1990Elevated blood pressure (hypertension) is associated with increased risk for several complications, and the risk is gradually increasing from the lowest to the highest blood pressure levels. Elevated blood pressure is associated with metabolic and other abnormalities which are not affected by antihypertensive treatment.

The sympathetic control of blood pressure
Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2006Hypertension - the chronic elevation of blood pressure - is a major human health problem. In most cases, the root cause of the disease remains unknown, but there is mounting evidence that many forms of hypertension are initiated and maintained by an elevated sympathetic tone.

Blood Pressure Control and Antihypertensive Treatment
Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2012Several lines of evidence show that blood pressure (BP) control in treated hypertensive patients is largely unsatisfactory and that this depends on a variety of factors, such as the poor patient's compliance, insufficient use of combination drug treatment as well as true difficulties in achieving well controlled BP.

Chronic Blood Pressure Control
Comprehensive Physiology, 2012Abstract Chronic blood pressure is maintained within very narrow limits around an average value. However, the multitude of physiologic processes that participate in blood pressure control present a bewildering array of possibilities to explain how such tight control of arterial pressure is achieved.

Control of Blood Pressure and the Distribution of Blood Flow
International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 1991Systemic blood pressure (BP) is the product of cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. Cardiac output is controlled by the heart rate, myocardial contractility, preload, and afterload. Vascular resistance (vascular hindrance × viscosity) is under local autoregulation and general neurohumoral control through sympathetic adrenergic innervation ...

Blood Pressure Monitoring, 2000
Office blood pressure measurement is the standard for assessing blood pressure control. Many patients, however, take their antihypertensive medication in the morning, so they are likely to have their office blood pressure measured during the maximal antihypertensive effect.

Feasibility of blood pressure telemonitoring in patients with poor blood pressure control
Journal of Telemedicine and Telecare, 2009We examined the feasibility of using home blood pressure (BP) telemonitoring devices for managing patients with poor BP control. We enrolled 591 subjects with a diagnosis of hypertension. Patients were randomized to usual care ( n = 147) or to the intervention arm ( n = 441).

1986
Mechanisms responsible for the maintenance of high blood pressure have been investigated extensively in essential as well as in renovascular hypertension. The pathogenesis of hypertension in end-stage renal failure (ESRF), however, has evidently evoked little interest despite the fact that, due to a diminishing interference of the natural kidneys and ...
