This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Week 2, Patient social history drinks 6 pack beer daily, Inappropriately high renin release allows angiotensinogen to be converted into Angiotensin I, Case cause life-style, Relaxing the blood vessels so the heart does not have to pump as hard in turn Increases blood supply and oxygen to the heart, Diltiazem dosing initial 120-240 mg, Patient information 42 year old White Male, Inappropriately High Sympathetic Outflow causes Abnormal renal salt/water handling, 185/99 issue smokes 2 ppd, Inappropriately High Sympathetic Outflow causes Increased large arterial stiffness, JNC - 8 non-black initiate thiazide diuretic or ACE, ARB or CCB *in combination or alone, Abnormal renal salt/water handling want to lower renal reabsorption of Na and Mg., atorvastatin when taken with a thiazide diuretic may increase serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels, Diltiazem It works by Relaxing the blood vessels so the heart does not have to pump as hard, Inappropriately High Sympathetic Outflow causes Inappropriately high renin release, Peripheral Vascular Resistance (PVR) delays RAAS, Hypertension can cause Blindness, Hypertension can cause Heart attack and heart failure, Inappropriately high cardiac output want cells to use less calcium so there are less contractions, calcium channel blockers decrease Peripheral Vascular Resistance (PVR), Angiotensin II through the use of ACE want to stop this an ACEi can be used
