- Hi Loren-As I understand it, reactive hypertension often is an elevated BP reading that is happening at that moment for various reasons such as anxiety, stress, overeating, alcohol intake, being in pain etc...and it's a temporary spike...not sustained.

What is the difference between pulmonary hypertension and regular hypertension? Blood pressure (BP) is the pressure exerted by circulating blood upon the walls of blood vessel, and is one of the principal vital signs. Arterial hypertension or hypertension or high BP can be an indicator of other problems and may have long-term adverse effects. Sometimes it can be an acute problem, for example hypertensive emergency.

Renovascular Hypertension Definition. Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure that is caused by narrowing (stenosis) of one or both of the arteries, called the renal arteries, that supply blood to the kidneys.Narrowing of the renal arteries reduces blood flow to the kidneys.efinition. Renovascular hypertension is high blood pressure that is caused by narrowing (stenosis) of one or both of the arteries, called the renal arteries, that supply blood to the kidneys.

What is portal hypertension? Portal hypertension is a serious increase in blood pressure in the portal vein system in the liver. Portal hypertension can be a complication of cirrhosis of the liver or alcoholic hepatitis. If the vessels in the liver are blocked by disease, it is hard for the blood to flow, causing high pressure in the portal system.

Orthostatic hypertension From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Orthostatic hypertension, or postural hypertension, is a medical condition consisting of a sudden increase in blood pressure when a person stands up. Orthostatic hypertension is diagnosed by a rise in systolic blood pressure of 20 mmHg or more when standing.

Orthostatic hypertension Orthostatic hypertension, or postural hypertension, is a medical condition consisting of a sudden increase in blood pressure when a person stands up.[1] Orthostatic hypertension is diagnosed by a rise in systolic blood pressure of 20 mmHg or more when standing. Orthostatic diastolic hypertension is a condition in which the diastolic raises to 98 mmHg or over in response to standing; however, this definition currently lacks clear medical consensus and is thus subject to change. Orthostatic hypertension involving the systolic is known as systolic orthostatic hypertension.

- Hypertension is classified as either primary (essential) hypertension or secondary hypertension. About 90–95% of cases are categorized as primary hypertension, defined as high blood pressure with no obvious underlying cause.ulse pressure (the difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure) is frequently increased in older people with hypertension. This can mean that systolic pressure is abnormally high, but diastolic pressure may be normal or low — a condition termed isolated systolic hypertension.

Labile hypertension Labile hypertension, or borderline hypertension, is a term used to describe blood pressure measures that may fluctuate abruptly and repeatedly from normal to high. Increases in blood pressure may be a reaction to emotional stress. Common symptoms.

Hypertensive Crisis: When You Should Call 9-1-1 for High Blood Pressure A hypertensive (high blood pressure) crisis is when blood pressure rises quickly and severely. There are two types of hypertensive crises — both require immediate medical attention. If you get a blood pressure reading of 180/110 or greater, wait about five minutes and try again.

Pregnancy induced hypertension What is pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH)? Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) is a form of high blood pressure in pregnancy. It occurs in about 7 to 10 percent of all pregnancies. Another type of high blood pressure is chronic hypertension - high blood pressure that is present before pregnancy begins.

Overview Secondary hypertension differs from the usual type of high blood pressure (primary hypertension or essential hypertension), which is often referred to simply as high blood pressure. Primary hypertension has no clear cause and is thought to be linked to genetics, poor diet, lack of exercise and obesity.

- Pulmonary hypertension (or PHT) is high blood pressure that occurs in the arteries in the lungs. It is a different measurement altogether from systemic blood pressure. It reflects the pressure the heart must exert to pump blood from the heart through the arteries of the lungs.

Hypertension Hypertension is classified as either primary (essential) hypertension or secondary hypertension. About 90–95% of cases are categorized as primary hypertension, defined as high blood pressure with no obvious underlying cause.ormal blood pressure at rest is within the range of 100–140 millimeters mercury (mmHg) systolic and 60–90 mmHg diastolic. Hypertension is present if the blood pressure is persistently at or above 140/90 mmHg for most adults; different numbers apply to children.

High blood pressure usually does not cause symptoms.

Hypertension Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure (HBP), is a long term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated. High blood pressure usually does not cause symptoms. Long-term high blood pressure, however, is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, vision loss, chronic kidney disease, and dementia. High blood pressure is classified as either primary (essential) high blood pressure or secondary high blood pressure.

Hypertensive retinopathy What is Hypertensive Retinopathy? Hypertensive retinopathy is damage to the retina from high blood pressure. The high blood pressure changes the microvasculature of the layer of tissue at the back part of the eye. Severe damage to the eye is likely if the person has been living with high blood pressure for a long period of time. Common symptoms.

What is Hyperemia? With reactive hyperemia, also referred to as passive hyperemia, blood collects in an organ of the body in response to a blockage in the veins that are supposed to move the blood out. This usually takes place after a person experiences a period of ischemia, such as arterial occlusion.yperemia is a condition in which blood congests in a particular area of the body. It can be either active or reactive. Active hyperemia takes place during muscle contraction, which has earned it additional names, such a functional hyperemia and exercise hyperemia.
