Much new information on hypertension in the young has become available. Previous chapters have been fully revised and new chapters have been added to cover important topics of recent interest such as consensus recommendations, the prevalence of hypertension in the young due to the obesity epidemic, studies of antihypertensive agents, and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Pediatric Hypertension, Third Edition is a comprehensive volume featuring 38 chapters covering the breadth of the current knowledge. It is divided into four sections: Regulation of Blood Pressure in Children; Assessment of Blood Pressure in Children: Measurement, Normative Data, Epidemiology; and Hypertension in Children: Predictors, Risk Factors, and Special Populations; Evaluation and Management of Pediatric Hypertension. Filled with the most up-to-date information, Pediatric Hypertension, Third Edition is an invaluable resource for clinicians and researchers interested in childhood hypertension.

Download or read book Screening for Hypertension in Children and Adolescents to Prevent Cardiovascular written by Oregon Evidence-based Oregon Evidence-based Practice Center and published by . This book was released on 2014-02-18 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this systematic evidence review is for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) to update its recommendation on screening for high blood pressure in children and adolescents to prevent cardiovascular disease. In 2003, the USPSTF found poor evidence that routine blood pressure measurement accurately identifies children and adolescents at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, and poor evidence to determine whether treatment of elevated blood pressure in children or adolescents decreases the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Recent data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey suggest that mean blood pressure levels are rising steadily in children, as is the prevalence of childhood hypertension. This may be due to the increase in the prevalence of obesity and overweight among children, which is highly correlated with high blood pressure. Screening of asymptomatic children has the potential to detect hypertension at earlier stages, so that interventions can be initiated which, if effective, could reduce the adverse health effects of childhood hypertension in both childhood and adulthood, including cardiovascular disease and organ damage. This report summarizes recent and older evidence on screening and diagnostic accuracy of screening tests for high blood pressure in children, the effectiveness and harms of treatment for screen-detected, primary childhood hypertension, and the tracking of hypertension from childhood to adulthood.

Download or read book Screening for Hypertension in Children and Adolescents to Prevent Cardiovascular Disease Systematic Review for the U S Preventive Services Task Force written by U. S. Department Human Services and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this systematic evidence review is for the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) to update its recommendation on screening for high blood pressure in children and adolescents to prevent cardiovascular disease. In 2003, the USPSTF found poor evidence that routine blood pressure measurement accurately identifies children and adolescents at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, and poor evidence to determine whether treatment of elevated blood pressure in children or adolescents decreases the incidence of cardiovascular disease. As a result, the USPSTF could not determine the balance of benefits and harms of routine screening for high blood pressure in children and adolescents, which resulted in an I recommendation. Recent data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey suggest that mean blood pressure levels are rising steadily in children, as is the prevalence of childhood hypertension. This may be due to the increase in the prevalence of obesity and overweight among children, which is highly correlated with high blood pressure. Screening of asymptomatic children has the potential to detect hypertension at earlier stages, so that interventions can be initiated which, if effective, could reduce the adverse health effects of childhood hypertension in both childhood and adulthood, including cardiovascular disease and end-organ damage. This report summarizes recent and older evidence on screening and diagnostic accuracy of screening tests for high blood pressure in children, the effectiveness and harms of treatment for screen-detected, primary childhood hypertension, and the tracking of hypertension from childhood to adulthood. Using the methods of the USPSTF and with the input of members of the USPSTF, we developed an analytic framework and key questions to guide our literature search and review. Key Questions include: 1. Is screening for hypertension in children/adolescents effective in delaying the onset of or reducing adverse health outcomes related to hypertension? 2. What is the diagnostic accuracy of screening tests for elevated blood pressure in children/adolescents? 3. What is the association between hypertension in children/adolescents and hypertension and other intermediate outcomes in adults? 4. What are the adverse effects of screening for hypertension in children/adolescents, including labeling and anxiety? 5. What is the effectiveness of drug, nondrug, and combination interventions for treating primary hypertension in children/adolescents? 6. What is the effectiveness of drug, nondrug, and combination interventions initiated for the treatment of primary hypertension in children/adolescents for reducing blood pressure and other intermediate outcomes in adults? 7. What is the effectiveness of drug, nondrug, and combination interventions initiated for the treatment of primary hypertension in children/adolescents for reducing adverse health outcomes in adults related to primary hypertension? 8. What are the adverse effects of drug, nondrug, and combination interventions for treating primary hypertension in children/adolescents?
