Abstract:
This patient had received antihypertensive therapy, which was followed by severe acute hypertension (300/260 mmHg), due to inadequate ventilation after anesthesia. Acute hypertensive treatment was performed successfully by lowering blood pressure with chlorpromazine, 25 mg and valium, 10 mg by intravenous injection, with intermittent positive pressure breathing.
