Urinary sodium excretion, central hemodynamics, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were studied in 7 normal subjects and 19 hypertensive patients during both central hypervolemia by water immersion to the neck (NI) and extracellular volume expansion by i.v. saline infusion. During 2-hour NI, 12 out of the 19 hypertensives exhibited a significant fall in MAP (p less than 0.001). Exaggerated natriuresis did not occur in these patients (ns). In the remaining 7 hypertensive patients in whom, during NI, MAP was unchanged, exaggerated natriuresis was found (p less than 0.001). During saline infusion, MAP was either unchanged or increased and exaggerated natriuresis was found in all hypertensive patients (p less than 0.001) previously submitted to NI. Our findings suggest that a high MAP is a major determinant of exaggerated natriuresis in arterial hypertension.

D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more.
