Hypertension
• Common • Non Communicable disease• Inevitable• Preventable• Serious complication
3
WHO estimated that high blood pressure
causes one in every eight deaths, making
hypertension the third leading killer in the world.
Globally, there are one billion hypertensives and
four million people die annually as a direct result
of it.

Size of the problem1-World wide
• In 2010, 1.2 billion people were expected to be suffering from hypertension worldwide
Sixth report of the Joint National Committee on prevention,1997 • Expected to increase to 1.56 billion by 2025
International Society of Hypertension • Its prevalence from 20% to 30% of the adult population.
Alwan A 1993
• Incidence In USA between 14% to 40% in 35 to 64 years. WHO 2002
• Prevalence in Canada 17.3%. Most patients had untreated hypertension (68.6%), and only 15.8% had blood pressure treated and controlled.
Petrella et al 2007

Size of the problem
2-In the Eastern Mediterranean Region
• The average prevalence of hypertension 26% and it affects
approximately 125 million individuals.
• Each year, there are several million new cases of
hypertension and more of pre-hypertension

In Lebanon
•23.1% are hypertensive
•Prevalence increases with age
•Occurs more in the less educated and unemployed
•Prevalence increases significantly with an increase in
body mass index particularly in female patients
•Only14.7% exercised daily R A Tohme, A R Jurjus, A Estephan 2005

Size of the problem
In Saudi Arabia:The prevalence range from 4% to 15%.
Abolfotouh MA et al.
It may reach as high as 20.4% for systolic hypertension and 25.9% for diastolic hypertension.
Al-Nozha MM et al.
In south-western 11.1%. Abolfotouh MA et al.
In Jeddah, the hypertensive were 22.6%.Elkalifa Am et al.2011
In the UAE:Hypertension has become one of the leading public health problems
In Sudan
of 6-12y children:
4.9% were pre-hypertensive and
4.9% were hypertensive
Salman Z, et al 2010
12
Size of the problem
It has been estimated that individuals who are
normotensive at the age 55 years have a 90% lifetime risk for developing hypertension.

Awareness of Hypertension
Although the prevalence of high blood pressure is high, there is a low awareness rate (Up To 70% are unaware)
Alwan A1993
Awareness of Hypertension
Faisal Alnasir, 2004
15
Awareness of Hypertension
In Egypt only 37.5% of hypertensives were aware of Having it.
In United States, Chile, and Cub, 32%, 37%, and 39% of the people were not aware.

Advantage of Controlling Hypertension
•A 5-6 mmHg reduction in diastolic BP reduces stroke by 40%. Joint National Committee on Detection, 1992
•lowering by 5-6mmHg can reduce mortality from cerebrovascular disease by 35%-40%, from ischemic heart disease by 15% 20%
and reduction in all deaths from cardiovascular causes by 23%.
Psaty, et al 1997
• 3 mmHg decrease in systolic BP reduces annual mortality from stroke, coronary heart diseases and all other causes by 8%, 5% and 4%.
Whelton PK, 1994
•The chances of mortality from CVD in old hypertensive people when taking anti hypertensive medications is decreased by 34%.
MacMahon, 1993
Advantage of Controlling Hypertension
The first long-term data from a high-blood-
pressure study, the
Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program
(SHEP), show that each month of chlorthalidone-
based therapy was associated with
approximately one day of extension in life, free
from cardiovascular death.
The main findings are that after 22 years of
follow-up, when about 60% of the participants in
SHEP were dead, we saw a prolonged life
expectancy in those who took the active
treatment for 4.5 years. Dr John B Kostis Journal of the American Medical Association 2011

Economic Impact
The economic burden of chronic NCDs can be analyzed on two levels.
•First, the effects of macroeconomic policies on opportunities for prevention in different
population groups
•Second, the cost and overall efficiency of interventions must be evaluated in terms of
effectiveness and health gains for the population at large.
19
Economic Impact
Direct Cost:Including prescribing medicines, inpatient visits, outpatient visits, emergency room visits, office-based medical provider visits, home health visits, and other medical expenses
Sanjeev Balu, 2001
Indirect Cost:Productivity loss ($300 per eligible employee per year)
absence & short term disability Goetzel (2004), the only study in the U.S.

Economic Impact
•Poor are disproportionately affected •more vulnerable •Prevalence 6 time more in uneducated•Medication cost up to US$ 100 per month •further poverty
•Cost to Health Services•USA total cost of CVD is 2% of the gross domestic product• direct medical costs estimated at nearly $55.0 billion for the year 2001
Sanjeev Balu, 2001
•Canada 21% of all diseases costs are due to CVD (US$12 billion/Year) direct cost is $3,072 per person per year, and indirect cost is $854
Guijing Wang,2008
21
Economic Impact
In Alkhobar the total direct cost of hypertension
care for patients registered in the primary health
care represented 6.32% of the estimated cost of
treating the expected number of patients. Al-Shahri 1998
22
Prevention
Primary prevention is the most cost-effective
approach to containing the emerging
hypertension epidemic.Hussein AlGezairy
Regional Director for WHO
23
Prevention
Incidence of hypertension was reduced by 20% to
50% if primary prevention were implemented Stamler 1991
For the developing countries prevention of hypertension should be the goal.

Change in Blood Pressure reduction between cocoa & Tea
Taubert et al 2007
“The magnitude of the hypotensive effects of cocoa is in the range that is usually achieved with monotherapy of β-blockers or angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors”
Chocolate and Coronary Heart Disease: A Systematic Review
This article reviews current evidence on the effects of cocoa/chocolate on
clinical and subclinical coronary heart disease (CHD), CHD risk factors,
and potential biologic mechanisms.
The high content of polyphenols and flavonoids present in cocoa has
been reported to play an important protective role in the development of
CHD.
Although studies have demonstrated beneficial effects of chocolate on
endothelial function, blood pressure, serum lipids, insulin resistance, and
platelet function, it is unclear whether chocolate consumption influences
the risk of CHD. Khawaja O et al Current Atherosclerosis Reports, Volume 13 / September 2011

Hypertension Control
Very poor control of hypertension world wide
•In Egypt 23.9% were receiving treatment & 8% controlled
Ibrahim et al.
•In Canada 15.8% had blood pressure treated and controlled
Petrella et al, 2007 •In Saudi Arabia, 76 % were receiving treatment, but only
20% were found controlledAbolfotouh et al,
52
Measurement of Blood Pressure
•Seated in a quiet room •Arm muscles relaxed •Cubital fossa at heart level •Avoid tight sleeves •Suitable size Cuff to be used•Repeat if BP > 140/90•Measurement on both arms •Mercury sphygmomanometers are most reliable
Goodman and Gilman's1993
53
Management
Good management of hypertension is central to any
strategy formulated to control hypertension at the
community level. Randomized trials of drugs that
lower and control blood pressure clearly show a
reduction in mortality and morbidity.Hussein A. Gezairy
Regional Director for the Eastern Mediterranean
54
Management
2 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure
is likely to reduce the annual mortality from
stroke, coronary heart disease and all other
causes by 6%, 4% and 3%, respectively
55
Conclusion
Hypertension is a serious problem that could
be called "the silent killer". Its prevalence is
very high especially in the GCC countries.
Effective efforts ought to be taken in order to
prevent, prevent, prevent, prevent then diagnose and treat it.

Clinical assessment of people with hypertension
Objectives
•to confirm a persistent elevation of blood pressure•to assess the overall cardiovascular risk•to evaluate existing organ damage or concomitant disease•to search for possible causes of the hypertension
66
Causes of hypertension
•Primary hypertension (95% of cases)
•Secondary hypertension
*Renal *Drugs
*Endocrine *Coarctation of the aorta and aortitis
*Pregnancy-induced hypertension
