Pharmacological Treatment of Arterial Hypertension with the Viscometer as a
Measurement Parameter
MD René Faustino Espinosa Álvarez and PhD José de la Luz Montero García
Abstract
Based on the knowledge of the cause of essential arterial hypertension, a measurable parameter blood
viscosity that guides the ideal pharmacological treatment of this disease. Five pharmalogical groups are
presented whose mechanism of action corresponds to what occurs in the artery when blood pressure
increases. An example of how to treat a hypertensive crisis with the help of a blood micro viscometer is
detailed, as a measuring instrument to specify that medications to be used, and some considerations to take
into account in the treatment, opening the door to future research aimed at defining the pharmacological
treatment.
