After 6-8 weeks of therapy, what happens to CO and PVR?

CO stays low; PVR unchanged

CO worsens; PVR increases

CO returns to normal; PVR decreases

Secondary hypertension

Mild or moderate essential hypertension

In severe hypertension, diuretics are used with which drugs?

Beta blockers alone

Sympathoplegic and vasodilator drugs

ACE inhibitors only

Initial diuretic therapy may cause an increase in which parameter?

PVR

Heart rate

What is the long-term effect of diuretics on PVR?

PVR decreases

PVR remains unchanged

PVR increases

Do diuretics always require combination therapy?

Yes; always with beta blockers

No; never used with other drugs

No; only in severe hypertension with other agents

What reverses sodium-induced PVR changes?

High-sodium diet

Exercise

Diuretics or sodium restriction
