Mastering hypertension management is critical for success on the USMLE Step 2 CK exam. In this comprehensive tutorial, we break down the core frameworks you need to distinguish between primary and secondary hypertension and accurately diagnose hypertensive emergencies.
In this video, you will learn:
*The Framework: How to differentiate Primary (Essential) from Secondary hypertension.
*Emergency vs. Urgency: Identifying end-organ damage (encephalopathy, AKI, stroke) vs. asymptomatic elevations.
*High-Yield Buzzwords: Clinical clues for Renal Artery Stenosis (abdominal bruits), Pheochromocytoma (episodic headache/sweating), and Primary Aldosteronism (hypokalemia/metabolic alkalosis).
*Medication Selection: Choosing the right first-line agent based on compelling indications like Diabetes with proteinuria or Heart Failure.
*Step-by-Step Question Walkthroughs: We tackle 6 practice questions covering everything from Fibromuscular Dysplasia to Aortic Dissection treatment.
High-Yield Board Tips Mentioned:
*Renovascular HTN: When you see an abdominal bruit, think renal artery stenosis first.
*Hypertensive Emergency: Requires IV medications (like Labetalol) for controlled reduction—never use sublingual nifedipine.
*Aortic Dissection: Always give Beta-blockers (like Esmolol) before vasodilators to prevent reflex tachycardia.
