RESUMEN
Es muy frecuente observar a pacientes que acuden a las unidades de
urgencias con presión arterial alta severa asintomática o con diversas
manifestaciones clínicas que generan cierta confusión para identificar
si la hipertensión arterial es causa o consecuencia del trastorno clínico
por el que consulta un paciente. Debido a la caótica situación y sobresaturación
de los servicios de urgencias de muchas clínicas y hospitales
y la carencia de guías nacionales o internacionales específicas para la
atención de estos pacientes, con frecuencia no son evaluados de manera
adecuada y, en ocasiones, reciben tratamiento indebido o insuficiente.
El término crisis hipertensiva aún se utiliza de manera genérica para
identificar a individuos con presión arterial alta severa, pero se invierte
poco esfuerzo para clasificarlos correctamente de acuerdo con si existe
o no daño cardiovascular concomitante. Son tres las situaciones clínicas
que se deben diferenciar: hipertensión severa descontrolada, urgencia
hipertensiva y emergencia hipertensiva, para elegir el tratamiento más
apropiado para reducir la presión arterial, debido a que cada escenario
clínico implica un seguimiento y pronóstico distintos.
