ASSOCIATION OF HYPERTENSION WITH SERUM UREA AND CREATININE

Introduction: Hypertension is a widespread, challenging disorder. Elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure are hallmarks of hypertension that can also result from a sedentary lifestyle, which can lead to vascular illness, chronic kidney disease (CKD), myocardial infarction, and stroke. It can also affect biological parameters like urea and creatinine, which are elevated in the majority of hypertensive patients. Objective: The objective of this study is to acknowledge how the serum urea, creatinine, and impaired renal functions is interlinked with hypertensive patients. Methodology: EPI software was used to calculated the sample size for the cross sectional study of 50 patients at central park teaching hospital(CPTH), with a age limit of 18-80 years, whose urea creatinine has been already measured and whose medical history has been thoroughly examined to determine either they are hypertensive or normotensive. Results: The results of this research indicate a positive correlation between elevated serum urea and creatinine levels and increased systolic blood pressure. This shows a relation between hypertension and kidney function biomarkers, i.e, urea and creatinine. Conclusion: Urea and creatinine are highly interlinked with hypertensive patients. High levels of urea and creatinine have been observed in hypertensive patients, and hypertension is frequently the cause of decreased renal functioning because of vascular blockage.
