Extremely exciting to share the new #PrimaryAldosteronism guidelines. Big advance in suggesting that all hypertensive adults should be screened for PA. Let's diagnose and treat every patient with this common, deleterious but highly treatable disease! @WeArePAOrg @TheEndoSociety
The New @TheEndoSociety #PrimaryAldosteronism Clinical Guideline session now #ENDO2015 with Profs @m_stowasser & Gail Adler chairing the committee , and @AnandVaidya17 @DrJunYang & other experts in the committee

More evidence for treating hypertension with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, if renin is low despite ACE-inhibition. It is probably #PrimaryAldosteronism!
Work smarter, not harder! A low renin with concurrent use of ACEi/ARB is almost certainly some shade of Primary Aldosteronism. Either way, aldosterone-directed therapy is very likely to provide major clinical benefits https://t.co/G8u5BNzyZE

Do patients want to be screened for primary aldosteronism: Yes How much PA can be identified with a direct-to-patient approach: A Lot Can this approach be implemented nationwide: Yes @JeniferBrown

Doctors are overlooking an important test that could reduce hypertension and thus deaths in these patients.

People with #lupus experience a high burden of #hypertension and #heart disease. Should they be screened for #PrimaryAldosteronism? In our cohort of 322 patients with lupus, 30% has an indication for PA screening, only 3% were tested. @SCSMonash @Hudson_Research @MonashHealth
Delighted to share this collaborative work evaluating #PrimaryAldosteronism testing in hypertensive patients with #lupus. More research is needed. https://t.co/nby8vlDN7A

I haven't baked properly for a long time, as it takes time away from writing, reviewing, editing, research in general... but gee, it felt amazing to have completed my first chestnut cake for a special occasion!

A trial of #finerenone in treating #PrimaryAldosteronism. As expected, it was as good as spironolactone at lowering BP, without the adverse effects. Now we need a larger RCT. @WeArePAOrg @EndoSocAus @TheEndoSociety @HypertensionAus @Hudson_Research

#AVS (adrenal vein sampling) helps identify surgically curable #PrimaryAldosteronism. It is complex, with variable success rates. What are key elements to success, through an implementation lens? @WeArePAOrg @EndoSocAus @TheEndoSociety @Hudson_Research @SCSMonash @A5_Adrenal

Thoroughly enjoyed the summit meeting of the National #HypertensionTaskforce. Lots of important work ahead to control #hypertension, the number one risk factor for death. @EndoSocAus @Hudson_Research @SCSMonash @HypertensionAus
Thanks to @Mark_Butler_MP for his opening remarks at the National Hypertension Summit 2024 in Sydney this morning and his acknowledgement of the National #HypertensionTaskforce and its goal to increase control rates in 🇦🇺 from 32% to 70% by 2030
