True Resistant Hypertension Following Observed Drug Ingestion: A Systematic Evaluation [PDF]
, 2016 The authors investigated the role of poor drug adherence in treatment-resistant hypertension following observed drug ingestion in 102 patients. Median blood pressures (BPs) were 170/91 mm Hg at referral, 153/84 mm Hg prior to, and 142/79 mm Hg during a 4-

Understanding resistant hypertension
JAAPA, 2021 ABSTRACT Resistant hypertension affects about 17% of the US population. However, it is difficult to diagnose because of multiple factors that influence adequate treatment of BP, including patient lifestyle and comorbidities, improper therapeutic regimens, and secondary mechanisms. Possible causes of resistant hypertension include nonmodulator

White-Coat Resistant Hypertension
, 1997 The aim of this study was to evaluate whether sustained hypertensives with high clinic blood pressure, despite multiple drug treatment, show a true resistant hypertension or a "white-coat effect," and whether the pretreatment white-coat effect is ...
