Abstract
To evaluate the challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric primary arterial hypertension, considering the effectiveness of the diagnosis, adherence to treatment, quality of life, blood pressure control and long-term impact. Methods: This is an integrative review developed through research in the PubMed database, using the following search strategy (((Hypertension) AND ((Child) OR (Adolescent)) AND (((Treatment) AND (Diagnosis )) OR (Management))) NOT ((Adult) OR (Newborn) OR (Pregnancy)). 3075 articles were found, of which 60 articles were pre-selected after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 41 were removed after the selection. reading and initial analysis, totaling 19 for complete analysis. Results: The studies indicate the relationship between obesity and a sedentary lifestyle with cases of pediatric hypertension. increase in cardiovascular events. Dietary measures are emphasized as the main therapeutic approach, with few studies targeting medications used that are confirmed to be safe. Final considerations: The importance of lifestyle changes is highlighted, in addition to rigorous screening measures. in order to prevent future complications.
