Congratulations to @lama_ghazi @ajpeixoto @fperrywilson et al on their @AJKDonline paper out this week exploring whether there is heterogeneity in IV antihypertensives' effect on AKI incidence among patients who develop severe HTN during hospitalization!👇 https://t.co/FJbel3VKoL

1/ Elevated BP is common in the acute care setting & can appear as asymptomatic or w/ new or worsening symptoms. This aims to synthesize available evidence, provide best practice suggestions, identify gaps in managing elevated inpatient BP & identify areas for further research.

Should we rethink our approach to treating inpatient asymptomatic hypertension? The terms "hypertensive urgency" and "hypertensive crisis" might be outdated, potentially leading to inappropriate treatment. This new AHA Scientific Statement suggests it's time for a change.

Fresh off the press! Our scientific statement on orthostatic hypotension in adults with hypertension! The writing team put a lot of heart into this really informative work!
Orthostatic hypotension has been understood as a manifestation of autonomic dysfunction but is a common comorbidity of HTN This statement focuses on the most current epidemiology & pathophysiology between OH & HTN @spjuraschek @VUMCClinPharm @lama_ghazi
