📌Diagnóstico y manejo de la HTA resistente
🚨 115/75 mmHg ya debe llamar la atención
↗️Cada 20 mmHg de aumento de la sistólica o 10 mmHg de la diastólica 𝐝𝐮𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚 el riesgo de un evento CV fatal.
•Prevalencia: 12-18%
•22-50% aparentemente resistentes 𝐧𝐨 𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐝𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐬
HTA resistentes y riesgos más altos:
•46% de IC
•32% ERC terminal
•24% evento isquémico cardiaco
•6% de muerte
•Mayor prevalencia entre los pacientes con ERC, 22% aprox.

📌Guía de diagnóstico y tratamiento de síndromes agudos y crónicos del órgano AÓRTICO
🔹Aneurisma
Raíz & Ao ascendente >45 mm 🔸Dilatación entre 40-45 mm
Descendente & abdominal 1.5 del diámetro normal
🔹Disección: Stanford A , B & ni A ni B
🔸Utilizar las zonas de Ishimaru para reportar la extensión de la enfermedad
🔸Utilizar la clasificación de TEM
🔸Utilizar el score de GERAADA en la disección tipo A
👎🏻 para la clasificación de DeBakey y la binaria de Stanford
Independientemente de la subgrupo, todos los síndromes aórticos requieren un 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐧ó𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐨 𝐫á𝐩𝐢𝐝𝐨 𝐲 𝐞𝐥 𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞 𝐮𝐧 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐦é𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐨 ó𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐨 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐝𝐚𝐬 (isquemia de orgánica o rotura aórtica) y la muerte.
🔸Control estricto de la TAS entre 100 a 120 mmHg
🔸FC entre 60 a 80 lpm.
🔹Cirugía urgente: ⬆️la mortalidad 0.5% por cada hora de retraso

Blockages causing #heartattack are not 90% or 100% to begin with. They're usually 30% or 50% narrowing only. The heart attack happens when the plaque becomes vulnerable to rupture and form a clot causing heart attack acutely. The way to prevent is by addressing risk factors like sedentary life, smoking, diabetes, hypertension and cholesterol. These can be done effectively even without an angiogram or AI. But people are ready to undergo tests but not ready or patient enough to address risk factors in the long term. In an angiogram even if done, there may be 10 such plaques. 30-50% narrowing. Can't stent all of them in advance can we? We want single shot solutions for a chronic problem. Doesn't work that way.#MedTwitter

1/7: This year, let's fully understand the concepts of fluid responsiveness, fluid tolerance, venous congestion, dynamic fluid intolerance, and perfusion.
This is crucial for all providers as dedicated RCTs (1500 pts!) (@AndromedaShock 2) will help inform how to integrate these into practice.
