Decision making relating to treatment of hypertension: case discussions
14 Nov 2024
RVC Clinical Theatre 2
Systemic hypertension is estimated to affect at least 20% of older cats and is especially common in combination with illnesses such as chronic kidney disease. Diagnosis is not always straightforward; distinguishing between situational and genuine hypertension can be challenging. Currently two products are authorised for treatment of systemic hypertension. Treatment challenges include management of emergency cases, poor compliance, inadequate response and adverse effects. A successful outcome depends on good team work with the carer, regular monitoring and support tailored to the individual cat.
