Abstract

Hypertension is a real problem in children. It shows a tracking behaviour, representing a key risk factor for hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and end-organ failure in adulthood. However, the importance of addressing arterial hypertension in children is not limited to its risk of tracking into adulthood. Thus, early detection and management are crucial. Hypertension may be primary or due to secondary causes, and identification of this distinction is very important for the treatment setting. Importantly, the management of hypertension in children is crucial to prevent the well-known cardiovascular effects in adulthood. As demonstrated in the literature, healthy eating habits, together with regular physical activity, can have a major impact on reducing high blood pressure and preventing organ damage in children and adolescents. However, suppose these are not sufficient to treat hypertension. In that case, if patients are symptomatic and/or have additional metabolic conditions such as obesity, type diabetes mellitus, or chronic kidney disease, anti-hypertensive medication must be started. Recent guidelines have provided clear guidance on the treatment of hypertension and hypertensive crisis in pediatric age. On the other hand, there are currently few specific recommendations on the treatment of isolated nocturnal hypertension and treatment-resistant hypertension. This review aims to summarize the most recent recommendations for the treatment of hypertension and hypertensive crisis in children and the last years' knowledge and experience in treating childhood isolated nocturnal hypertension and resistant hypertension of childhood.
