A Hypertension Profile is a set of tests and assessments used to diagnose and monitor high blood pressure and its effects on the body. This profile typically includes blood pressure measurements, kidney function tests (creatinine and blood urea nitrogen), electrolytes (sodium, potassium), lipid panel, and blood glucose levels. Additional tests may include electrocardiograms (ECG) and echocardiograms to assess heart function. Abnormal results can indicate the presence of hypertension, related organ damage, or risk factors such as high cholesterol and diabetes. Early detection and regular monitoring through a Hypertension Profile are crucial for effective management, preventing complications like heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage.
