Acil Servise Başvuran Hipertansif Hastalarda Serum Ürik Asit Düzeyleri

Amaç: Hipertansif acil hastalarda serum ürik asit düzeylerinin önemi konusunda yapılan literatürde yeterli bilgi yoktur. Çalışmamız, yüksek tansiyon nedeniyle acil servise başvuran hastalarda serum ürik asit düzeylerinin rolünü araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve yöntemler: Kan basıncı 180/110 mmHg ve üzerinde akut hedef organ hasarı olan hipertansif acil (grup I), kan basıncı 180/110 mmHg ve üzerinde olan akut hedef organ hasarı olmayan hipertansif acil hastalar (grup II) ve 140-180 mmHg arasında sistolik kan basıncı ve 90-110 mmHg arasında diyastolik kan basıncı olan kontrolsüz hipertansiyonu olan hastalar (grup III). Bulgular: Yüz yirmi dört hipertansif hasta (80 kadın, 44 erkek) dahil edildi. Grup I'de 33 (% 26.6), grup II'de 19 (% 15.3) ve grup III'te 72 (% 58.1) hasta yer aldı. Serum ürik asit düzeyi açısından karşılaştırıldığında gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark olduğu bulundu (p = 0,001). Grup I'deki hastaların ortalama serum ürik asit düzeyi diğer gruplara göre yüksekti (p <0.05). Sonuç: Acil servise yüksek tansiyon ile başvuran hastalarda serum ürik asit düzeyleri hipertansif acil durumu ayırt etmede önemli olabilir.

Serum Uric Acid Levels in Hypertensive Patients Admitted to The Emergency Department

Objective: There is not enough information in the literature conducted about the importance of serum uric acid levels in hypertensive emergency patients. Our study aims to investigate the role of serum uric acid levels in patients admitted to the emergency department due to high blood pressure. Materials and methods: Hypertensive emergency with acute target organ damage with blood pressure 180/110 mmHg and above (group I), hypertensive urgency patients without acute target organ damage with blood pressure of 180/110 mmHg and above (group II), and the patients with uncontrolled hypertension with systolic blood pressure between 140-180 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure between 90-110 mmHg (group III). Results: One hundred twenty-four hypertensive patients (80 female, 44 male) were included. 33 patients (26.6%) were in group I, 19 (15.3%) in group II and 72 (58.1%) in group III. When compared in terms of serum uric acid level, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the groups (p = 0.001). The average serum uric acid level of patients in group I was higher compared to other groups (p <0.05). Conclusion: Serum uric acid levels in patients admitted to the emergency department with high blood pressure may be important in distinguishing hypertensive emergency.
