Assessment of hypertension-mediated organ damage in children and adolescents with hypertension
Blood Press. 2023 Dec;32(1):2212085. doi: 10.1080/08037051.2023.2212085.ABSTRACTPurpose: Arterial hypertension (HT) is a main, potentially reversible cardiovascular risk factor. Long lasting HT leads to hypertension mediated organ damage (HMOD) of heart, vascular bed, and kidneys. Assessment of HMOD is a standard diagnostic procedure in hypertensive adults and presence of HMOD is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. The assessment of main HMOD markers includes the assessment of left ventricular mass, carotid intima-media thickness, arterial stiffness expressed as pulse wave velocity, and assessment of microcircul...
