The Joint National Committee seventh report (JNC 7) defines hypertension as a [[systolic blood pressure]] of over 140 mm Hg or a [[diastolic blood pressure]] greater than 90 mm Hg based upon the average of two or more properly measured readings at each of two or more visits after an initial screen<ref name="pmid12748199">{{cite journal| author=Chobanian AV, Bakris GL, Black HR, Cushman WC, Green LA, Izzo JL et al.| title=The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure: the JNC 7 report. | journal=JAMA | year= 2003 | volume= 289 | issue= 19 | pages= 2560-72 | pmid=12748199 | doi=10.1001/jama.289.19.2560 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=12748199}}</ref>.

The age to begin screening for hypertension varies between 13-20 years of age, according to different authorities. Generally, hypertension is defined as SBP > 140 mmHg and/or DBP > 90 mmHg. In specific populations, however, routine follow-up target BP may be different; and initiation of treatment may be considered at even lower BP values than those considered for the normal population.

*Screening is recommended every 2 years if the blood pressure < 120/80 mmHg
*Screening is recommended yearly if initial blood pressure screening revealed JNC 7’s pre-hypertension stage: the systolic blood pressure is between 120 139 mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure is between 80 and 99 mmHg.
*Confirmation of BP values within 2 months is required if initial blood pressure revealed JNC 7’s stage 1 hypertension.
*Evaluation or referral to source of care within 1 month if initial blood pressure revealed JNC 7’s stage 2 hypertension.
*Evaluation and treatment immediately or within 1 week if initial blood pressure revealed JNC 7’s stage 2 hypertension with blood pressure > 180/110 mmHg. Clinical situation and complications are to be taken into major consideration.
*Treatment may be initiated immediately at lower blood pressure values in specific populations, such as those known to have Diabetes Mellitus.

Overview

The age to begin screening for hypertension varies between 13-20 years of age, according to different authorities. Generally, hypertension is defined as SBP > 140 mmHg and/or DBP > 90 mmHg. In specific populations, however, routine follow-up target BP may be different; and initiation of treatment may be considered at even lower BP values than those considered for the normal population.

Screening

The age to start screening for hypertension varies according to different authorities:

Authority Age to Start Screening for Hypertension
The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure (JNC 7)[1] 20 years
American Heart Association (AHA)[2] 20 years
American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP)[3] 18 years
American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG)[4] 13 years

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF)[5] and JNC 7[1] Screening Recommendations

  • If SBP < 120 mmHg and DBP < 80 mmHg: Screening is recommended every 2 years
  • If SBP = 120-139 mmHg and/or DBP = 80-89 mmHg: Screening is recommended yearly
  • If SBP = 140-159 mmHg and/or DBP = 90-99 mmHg: Confirmation of BP values within 2 months is required
  • If SBP = 160-180 mmHg and/or DBP > 110 mmHg: Evaluation or referral to source of care within 1 month
  • If SBP > 180 mmHg: Evaluation and treatment immediately or within 1 week. Clinical situation and complications are to be taken into major consideration.

2017 ACC/AHA/AAPA/ABC/ACPM/AGS/APhA/ASH/ASPC/NMA/PCNA Guideline for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults

Secondary Forms of Hyperpertension

Class I
"1. Screening for specific form(s) of secondary hypertension is recommended when the clinical indications and physical examination findings are present or in adults with resistant hypertension.(Level of Evidence: C-EO) "
Class IIb
"1. If an adult with sustained hypertension screens positive for a form of secondary hypertension, referral to a physician with expertise in that form of hypertension may be reasonable for diagnostic confirmation and treatment. (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "

Primary Aldosteronism

Class I
"1. In adults with hypertension, screening for primary aldosteronism is recommended in the presence of any of the following concurrent conditions: resistant hypertension, hypokalemia (spontaneous or substantial, if diuretic induced), incidentally discovered adrenal mass, family history of early-onset hypertension, or stroke at a young age (<40 years).(Level of Evidence: C-EO) "
"2. Use of the plasma aldosterone: renin activity ratio is recommended when adults are screened for primary aldosteronism.(Level of Evidence: C-LD) "
"3. In adults with hypertension and a positive screening test for primary aldosteronism, referral to a hypertension specialist or endocrinologist is recommended for further evaluation and treatment.(Level of Evidence: C-EO) "

Renal Artery Stenosis

Class I
"1. Medical therapy is recommended for adults with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis.(Level of Evidence: A) "
Class IIb
"1. In adults with renal artery stenosis for whom medical management has failed (refractory hypertension, worsening renal function, and/or intractable HF) and those with nonatherosclerotic disease, including fibromuscular dysplasia, it may be reasonable to refer the patient for consideration of revascularization (percutaneous renal artery angioplasty and/or stent placement). (Level of Evidence: C-EO) "

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Class IIb
"1. In adults with hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea, the effectiveness of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to reduce BP is not well established. (Level of Evidence: B-R) "
