    Description

    Did you know that about 5-10% of patients with resistant hypertension have a secondary cause that is potentially curable? In this episode, we cover how to work-up a patient for secondary hypertension as well as which patients to suspect a secondary cause. Further, we discuss management of both resistant and secondary hypertension! Listen to our podcast on adrenal incidentalomas as an adjunct!Written by: Dr. Claudia Frankfurter (IM resident)Reviewed by: Dr. Paula Harvey (Cardiology) and Dr. Tom MacMillan (GIM)
