1. Examination as soon as :
- Routine blood (hematocrit / hemoglobin) : to assess the relationship of the cells to the volume of fluid (viscosity) and may indicate risk factors such as : hyporcoagulability, anemia.
- Blood urea nitrogen / creatinine : provide information about perfusion / renal function.
- Glucose : Hyperglycemia (Diabetes Mellitus is the originator of hypertension) can be caused by spending levels of catecholamines (increase hypertension).
- Serum Potassium : Hypokalemia may indicate a presence of primary aldosterone (cause) or be a side effect diuretic therapy.
- Serum calcium : Increased serum calcium levels can lead to hypertension.
- Cholesterol and triglyceride serum : Increased levels may indicate the originator's / the formation of atheromatous plaque (cardiovascular effects)
- Examination Thyroid : Hyperthyroidism can cause vasoconstriction and hypertension.
- Urinary aldosterone levels / serum : to assess primary aldosteronism (cause).
- Urinalisa : blood, protein, glucose, indicating renal dysfunction and the presence of DM.
- Gout : Hyperuricemia has been a risk factor for hypertension implications.
- Urinary Steroids : The rise may indicate hyperadrenalism.
- ECG : 12 Lead, look for signs of ischemia, to see the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy or coronary disorders by showing patterns of strain, in which the area, the P wave elevation is one of the early signs of hypertensive heart disease.
- Chest x-ray : is there a pulmonary edema (can wait after treatment carried out) to show the destruction of calcification in the valve area, an enlarged heart.
- IVP : Can identify the causes of hypertension such as renal parenchymal disease, kidney stones / ureter.
- CT Scan : Assessing cerebral tumor, encephalopathy.
- IUP : identify the causes of hypertension such as kidney stones, kidney repair.
- Rule out the possibility of neurological surgery : Spinal tab, CAT scan.
- Ultrasound : to see gunjal structure implemented in accordance clinical condition of the patient.
