| Summary: | Aim of the study was to identify prognostic factors of hypertensive crisis during the heatwave of 2010. Materials and methods: observational cohort study involving 754 patients with moderate/low, high/very high risk and patients with CAD. Medical documentation and questionnaires was used. Selectively (344 pers.) were done sphygmography Visits were conducted in april - may and september - october 2010. Results: The frequency of cardiovascular complications increased during heat waves than in the september - october 2010. There were more hypertensive crises, unscheduled visits to the doctor and arrhythmia during the heat wave than after the heat. CAD [OR 1.8 (1.1-2.8)], a history of stroke [OR 3,4 (1.0-11.4)], intake of nitrates [OR 3.1 (1.1-9.1)] and discontinuation of antihypertensive medications [OR 2.7 (1.4-5.1)] proved to be predictors of hypertensive crisis during heat wave. Independent predictors had a history of stroke [OR 5.3 (1.1-25.1)] and the discontinuation of antihypertensive medications [OR 2.5 (1.2-4.9)]. Conclusion: CAD, intake of nitrates, history of stroke and discontinuation of antihypertensive medications proved to be predictors of hypertensive crisis during heat wave. Independent predictors had a history of stroke and the discontinuation of antihypertensive medications. |
