On July 30, 2023 we released an episode describing the hypertensive “rule of 55” otherwise known as the physiologic approach to hypertension management. The rule of 55 breaks down hypertension into either hyperdynamic/high cardiac output in origin, or systemic vascular resistance in origin. There is plenty of evidence to support this management approach. Late this evening, on November 30, 2023, Obstetrics and Gynecology released a new research letter ahead of print, providing more insights on the physiologic approach to hypertension management. In this episode, we will briefly cover this brand new publication, released just 2 hours ago, and provide clinical application perspectives.
