Target-organ damage in the additional risk assessment of hypertensives

• Left ventricular hypertrophy

○ ECGI: Sokolow-Lyon index (SV1 + RV5 or RV6) ≥ 35 mm

○ ECGI: R aVL > 11 mm

○ ECGI: Cornell voltage > 2440 mm*ms

○ ECHOI: LVMI > 115 g/m2 in men or > 95 g/m2 in women

• Carotid IMT > 0.9 mm or carotid plaque

• Carotid-femoral PWV > 10 m/s

• ABI < 0.9

• Stage 3 chronic kidney disease (GFR 30-60 mL/min/1.73m2)

• Albuminuria = 30 - 300 mg/24h or UACR = 30 - 300 mg/g

ECG: electrocardiogram; ECHO: echocardiogram; IMT: intima-media thickness; LVMI: left ventricular mass index; PWV: pulse wave velocity; ABI: ankle-brachial index; GFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; UACR: urine albumincreatinine ratio.
