Sampling Method
Study Population
To enable the inclusion of a diverse population, representative of the UK in terms of ethnicity, and geographical and environmental factors that affect blood pressure and PA, we aim to conduct the study at several specialist hypertension sites in the UK. We will recruit patients referred to one of the study sites with hypertension (NICE definition) who fall into one of the following groups (cohorts):
Cohort 1: Adult patients (18-75 years of age) with onset hypertension (≤60 years of age) but without other obvious features of PA Cohort 2: Adult patients (18-75 years of age) with onset hypertension (≤60 years of age) with one of the features: low serum potassium, or resistant hypertension.
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
A patient will be eligible for inclusion in this trial only if all of the following criteria apply:
- Aged 18 years and above.
- Meets NICE criteria for a diagnosis of hypertension with an age of onset of hypertension between 18-60 years.
- For cohort 2 (suspected primary aldosteronism): resistant hypertension, and/or hypertension with spontaneous or diuretic-induced hypokalaemia, and/or hypertension.
Exclusion Criteria:
• Severe hypertension (sustained blood pressure of >200/110 mmHg) or a history of known secondary hypertension other than PA.
- Contraindications to confirmatory testing with saline infusion or oral salt loading test as per standard clinical criteria such as known clinical diagnosis of heart failure, and/or chronic kidney disease stage 3b.
- Known Pregnancy or breast feeding.
- Lack of informed consent.
- Any medical condition deemed unsuitable by investigator for participation in the study
