Study Notes
Blood Pressure
- Normal blood pressure is considered to be < 140/90 mm Hg.
Hypertension
- Blood pressure > 140/90 mm Hg is considered hypertension.
- Malignant hypertension is a type of hypertension.
- Essential hypertension is another term for a type of hypertension.
Hypotension
- A decrease in blood pressure below normal levels is known as hypotension.
Antihypertensive Drugs
- Adrenergic neuron blocking agents are a category of antihypertensive drugs.
- Alpha adrenergic blockers and Beta adrenergic blockers are categories of antihypertensive drugs.
