Abstract

Introduction: Essential hypertension is a common circulatory system disease, which is affected by both genetic and environmental factors, and accounts for more than 40% of the cardiovascular disease total burden. Aim: To study 24 hour sodium and correlation to blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy in essential hypertension. Materials and methods: It is Hospital based Analytical Observational Cross-sectional study done in 100 patients comprised of hypertensive individuals presenting to Medicine op and patients admitted under the department who are fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria.  Results: There was a strong positive correlation between Systolic BP , diastolic BP , MAP , duration of HTN (Years) and Urinary Sodium (mmol/L), and this correlation was statistically significant. There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of urinary sodium(mmol/L), with the median Urinary Sodium (mmol/L) being highest in the LVHI. There was a significant difference between the various groups in terms of distribution of LVMI.There was a positive correlation between Systolic BP, Diastolic BP, MAP (mmHg) and LVMI (g/m2), and this correlation was statistically significant . There was no statistically significant correlation between BMI (Kg/m2) and LVMI (g/m2) (rho = 0.17, p = 0.084). There was no statistically significant correlation between BMI (Kg/m2) and LVMI (g/m2). Conclusions: Hypertension is one of the preventable causes of cardiovascular mortality. Hypertension can be prevented by modifiable risk factors such as low-salt diet, physical activity, blood sugar control, and smoking cessation.
