Objective: The purpose of this study was to establish whether Triglycerides (TGs) are related to Blood Pressure (BP) variability and whether controlling TG levels leads to better BP variability management and prevents Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). Methods: In this study, we enrolled 106 hypertensive patients and 80 non-hypertensive patients. Pearson correlation and partial correlation analyses were used to define the relationships between TG levels and BP variability in all subjects. Patients with hypertension were divided into two subgroups according to TG level: Group A (TG<1.7 mmol/L) and Group B (TG>=1.7 mmol/L). The heterogeneity between the two subgroups was compared using t tests and covariance analysis. Results: TG levels and BP variability were significantly different between the hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients. Two-tailed Pearson correlation tests showed that TG levels are positively associated with many BP variability measures in all subjects. After reducing other confounding factors, the partial correlation analysis revealed that TG levels are still related to the Standard Deviation (SD), Coefficient of Variation (CV) of nighttime systolic blood pressure and CV of nighttime diastolic blood pressure, respectively (each p<0.05). In the subgroups, group A had a lower SD of nighttime Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP_night_SD; 11.39±3.80 and 13.39±4.16, p=0.011), CV of nighttime systolic blood pressure (SBP_night_CV; 0.09±0.03 and 0.11±0.03, p=0.014) and average real variability of nighttime systolic blood pressure (SBP_night_ARV; 10.99±3.98 and 12.6±3.95, p=0.024) compared with group B, even after adjusting for age and other lipid indicators. Conclusion: TG levels are significantly associated with BP variability and hypertriglyceridemia, which affects blood pressure variability before causing target organ damage.

Penurunan tekanan darah diastolic pada kelompok A sebesar 12,14%, kelompok B = 14,04% dan kelompok C = 10,98%. Berdasarkan hasil analisa statistik diperoleh hasil p = 0,967 > α = 0,05 yang berarti tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna dari ketiga kelompok terapi tersebut dalam penurunan tekanan darah sistolik maupun diastolik pada pasien hipertensi. Hal ini berarti bahwa efektifitas ketiga obat tersebut dalam kontrol penurunan tekanan darah pada pasien Hipertensi mempunyai efektifitas yangKata Kunci: Candersartan, Valsartan, Kalium Losartan, HipertensiABSTRACTHypertension is an increase in systolic blood pressure of more than 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of more than 90 mmHg in two measurements with an interval of five minutes in a resting state. Factors causing hypertension are lifestyle factors, genetic factors and age factors. Hypertension is included in degenerative diseases where there is a decrease in body organs. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of blood pressure control of Candersartan, Valsartan and Potassium Losartan. This research was conducted in RS X of South Surabaya and RS Y of East Surabaya. This study is retrospective with observational. The study was divided into 3 therapeutic groups with a total population of 57 patients. Data on systolic-diastolic blood pressurewere observed for 5 months of therapy from each of the therapy groups A (Candersartan n = 19), therapy group B (Valsartan n = 19), and therapy group C (Potassium Losartan n = 19). That there was a decrease in systolic blood pressure in group A of 21,18%, group B = 24,20%, and group C = 22,51%. Diastolic blood pressure decrease in group A was 12,14%, group B = 14,04% and group C = 10,98%. Based on the results of statistical analysis obtained results p = 0.967> α = 0.05 which means there is no significant difference of the three groups of therapy in the reduction of systolic blood pressure and diastolic in hypertensive patients. This means that the effectiveness of the three drugs in the control of blood pressure reduction in hypertensive patients has the same effectiveness.Key Words: Candersartan, Valsartan, Potasium Losartan, Hypertesion

Objective: To study the effectiveness of prophylactic ephedrine to prevent hypotension caused by induction of anesthesia with propofol and sufentanil in elderly hypertensive patients. Methodology: 70 elderly ASA grade II-III hypertensive patients undergoing elective general anesthesia were randomized into two groups to receive either intravenous ephedrine,100 ug/kg in 5ml normal saline (Group B), or an equal volume of normal saline (Group A) before induction. Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and Heart Rate (HR) were recorded at T0 (after entry to the operating room), T1 (1 min after induction), T2 (2 min after induction), T3 ( 3 min after induction), T4 (4 min after induction), T5 (when intubated), T6 (2 min after intubation), and T7 (at the start of the procedure), as well as the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia. Results: SBP, DBP and HR were not significantly different at T0 and were significantly different at T1 to T7 after anesthesia induction. There were statistically significant effect on hypotension and bradycardia between the two groups and group B have a lower risk of hypotension and bradycardia relative to group A. SBP and DBP decreased significantly after induction in both groups. HR decreased significantly in group A while increased in group B. Conclusion: Ephedrine pretreatment can minimize hypotension and bradycardia caused by propofol and sufentanil during the induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients with hypertension.

Introduction: Acute coronary syndrome remains as one of the most important causes for morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Therefore, evidence-based management strategy is required to offset the loss of health during an acute coronary syndrome. An effective approach includes both medical and surgical methods. This study was conducted to evaluate the medical method of management. Objective: To study blood pressure and heart rate variability after administration of Ivabradine or metoprolol in cases with acute coronary syndrome. Materials and methods: The study was a Prospective single center observational study conducted in patients attending Cardiology Intensive Care Unit in Nayyar Heart and Superspecialty Hospital, a tertiary care centre located in an urban area. All patients with Acute coronary syndrome admitted to the emergency or cardiac care unit were analysed with ECG as a preliminary diagnostic test and confirmed with troponin markers. They were either given Ivabradine or Metoprolol. Baseline evaluation and follow up was done and necessary data was collected and analysed.   Results: 100 patients were included in the study out of which 50 were given Metoprolol (Group A) and 50 were given Ivabradine (Group B). Themean age of studied cases was found to be 66.54 years in group A and 68.69 years in group B. It was observed that there was a fall in heart rate by 26.8 beats per minute with beta blocker and 24.4 beats per minute with Ivabradine. In case of blood pressure measurement, in patients with beta blocker administration, there was a fall of 25 mm Hg in systolic blood pressure and 17 mm Hg in diastolic blood pressure However, with Ivabradine there was only a fall of 8mm Hg in systolic Blood pressure and 6 mm Hg in diastolic blood pressure. Conclusion: Although Metoprolol is the drug of choice to decrease heart rate and blood pressure in acute coronary syndrome, Ivabradine is being increasingly used in cases where beta blockers are contraindicated as it has similar efficacy in lowering heart rate without compromising contractility of cardiac muscle, thereby maintaining LVEF and blood pressure. Keywords: Acute coronary syndrome, Beta Blockers, Metoprolol, Ivabradine.

Background: Spinal anaesthesia induced hypotension, a common problem during caesarean section, is associated with maternal nausea and vomiting and the risk of neonatal acidosis. Low dose local anaesthetic combined with opioids spinal anaesthesia better preserves maternal haemodynamic stability, resulting in equally efficacious anaesthesia.Objectives: To investigate whether this synergistic action could be used to provide effective anaesthesia while preventing hypotension during caesarean operation.Materials and method: This prospective study included 60 pregnant mothers scheduled for caesarean operation who were then divided into two groups (thirty in each). Group-A received a spinal injection of 12.5 mg of standardized 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine and group-B received 8 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine with 20 ?gm fentanyl. Hypotension was defined as the systolic blood pressure drops below 90 mm of Hg or a decrease of systolic blood pressure 25% from pre anaesthesia level and hypotension was treated with a bolus of 5 to 10 mg of intravenous ephedrine. The quality of anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia were evaluated.Results: The mean time required to reach peak sensory level was earlier in group-B than group-A and was statistically significant (p<0.05). The decrease in systolic blood pressure in group-A was significantly more than group-B (p<0.05) and vasopressor requirement was also significantly more in group-A compared to group-B (p<0.05). Mean time of two segment regression of sensory analgesia and complete sensory recovery was significantly early in group-B (p<0.05). Duration of motor recovery in group-B was significantly earlier (p<0.05). The duration of effective analgesia was significantly more in group-B (p<0.05).Conclusion: Low dose Bupivacaine with fentanyl provided excellent intraoperative sensory and motor blockade, haemodynamic stability, and effective postoperative analgesia for caesarean delivery.Delta Med Col J.
