Hypertension Heart Disease (HHD)

definition

Rejekine. Hypertensive heart disease (HHD) is a term applied to mention heart disease as a whole, starting from the left ventricle hyperthrophy (LVH), cardiac arrhythmias, coronary heart disease, and chronic heart disease, the which Caused due to Increased blood pressure, either directly or directly indirectly.

Pathofisiologi

The increase of in systemic blood pressure increases the resistance to pumping blood from the left ventricle, thus Increasing heart load. As a result of left ventricular hypertrophy to increase of contractions. Hypertrophy is characterized by an Increased wall thickness, chamber function deteriorated, and dilatation of the heart chambers. However, the ability of the ventricle to maintain cardiac output eventually exceeded compensation by hypertrophy and dilatation Occurs and bad heart. The heart is increasingly Threatened as the severity of coronary atherosclerosis. Angina pectoris may also occur because the combination of rapid coronary arterial disease and myocardial oxygen demand is Increased due to the Addition of myocardial mass.

Radiological

Aortic knob calcification accompanied by enlarged and prominent. Dilated ascending aorta and descenden and winding (elongation aorta / aortic elongasio)
