This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: week 24 darnique peterson, Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors activation of which leads to increased Peripheral resistance, Angiotensin converting enzyme ACE to Ang. II, Renin-antiotensin- aldosterone system RAAS begins with Angiotensinogen, pituitary gland causes secretion of ADH, Peripheral resistance increases Arterial blood pressure, Sympathetic nervous system due to resetting of baroreflex, Sympathetic nervous system Stimulates Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors, AT1 receptor increases Inflammatory agents, Primary/essential hypertension HTN Diagnosed via Arterial blood pressure, adrenal cortex To secrete Aldosterone, dietary Na+ leads to reduced intracellular Na+, AT1 receptor which is inhibited by ARBs, Angiotensinogen is converted by Renin, Left ventricular hypertrophy LVH which is reinforced by leftshifted Point of maximal impulse PMI, afterload chronicaly leads to Left ventricular hypertrophy LVH, ADH leading to Thirst, Adipose tissue increases Inflammatory agents, Primary/essential hypertension HTN results in increased afterload, Primary/essential hypertension HTN called "idiopathic" but caused by oversensitive Sympathetic nervous system, Darnique Peterson 52 YOF African-American previously diagnosed with Primary/essential hypertension HTN
