In order to stop further organ damage, the first objective is to promptly lower the blood pressure with intravenous (IV) blood pressure drugs.

  • The terms "hypertensive crisis" and "hypertensive urgency" are interchangeable. Both of these disorders develop when blood pressure rises significantly and can lead to organ damage.
  • Blood pressure spikes and readings of 180/110 or higher are called hypertensive urgency, even if no organs are damaged. Blood pressure medications can safely lower blood pressure within hours.
  • A hypertensive emergency is an emergency in which organ damage is possible due to very high blood pressure. Imminent organ damage should be avoided by immediately lowering blood pressure.
  • Emergent hypertension is rare. Such cases often occur when high blood pressure is untreated, when people forget to take their blood pressure medicine, or when they take over-the-counter medicines that make high blood pressure worse.

The first objective is to promptly lower the blood pressure with intravenous (IV) blood pressure drugs.

A green salad is a salad made up of greens and vegetables. A fruit salad is made of fruits. Minestrone soup consists of vegetables, rice, and broth.

Let’s analyze our choices.

Vitamins come from a variety of foods. Protein comes from meat, fish, beans, legumes and dairy. Carbohydrates come from bread, corn, cereal, potatoes, fruits and vegetables. The sugar and fiber inside fruits and vegetables are carbohydrates too.

Dawn had a lot of fruits, vegetables, and some grain from the rice. Therefore; the best choice is C. Carbohydrates.
