Your patient is a 46 yo AA male. He was seen last month with a BP of 160/104. You gave his advice on lifestyle modifications and advised him to return in 1 month for follow-up visit. He returns to 1 month later and his BP is 160/104 HR 84 & regular. He denies HA, blurred vision, chest pain, SOB & LE edema. He has no chronic diseases and has always considered himself to be in good health. What additional data would you obtain to rule out secondary cause of HTN in pts with elevated BP? Which histories should be explored to identify risk factors for HTN? Which laboratory tests should be evaluated in all HTN patients?
