This research investigates the relationship between the timing and location of symptom onset in patients who come to the emergency department with hypertensive crisis, defined by very high blood pressure systolic 6180 andor diastolic 6110 mmHg, and changes in atmospheric pressure. The study focuses on hypertensive crisis without organ damage and explores how external factors like atmospheric pressure may influence blood pressure fluctuations and related health events. Participants are patients admitted to the emergency department with severe high blood pressure meeting the defined thresholds. The study is observational and follows patients to assess their blood pressure status in relation to atmospheric pressure changes. The study period includes enrollment and a follow-up lasting 7 days to monitor hypertensive crisis outcomes. During the study, researchers will collect data on patients blood pressure and symptom timing, along with atmospheric pressure measurements. They will observe how these factors correlate over the 7-day follow-up. The main outcome measured is the occurrence and characteristics of hypertensive crisis during this time. The study aims to better understand external influences on severe hypertension and its management.
