About this document

Primary Aldosteronism Insights and Management by carlos ujeda is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common yet underdiagnosed form of hypertension, with recent studies suggesting its prevalence may be 3 to 5 times higher than previously estimated. Despite guidelines recommending screening for PA in hypertensive patients, less than 1% are currently screened, highlighting a significant gap in clinical management. The review emphasizes the need for improved awareness, standardized testing, and updated guidelines to better address the diagnosis and treatment of PA.
