Is a White Coat Causing Your Hypertension?

A client recently wrote to me to tell me that her husband, who’s blood pressure readings at home are normal, always gives a high blood pressure read at his doctor’s office.

My client wondered if her husband was suffering from stress about seeing the doctor and that was perhaps raising his blood pressure.  While her husband did not think he was particularly nervous about seeing his doctor, he did admit it could be playing a role subconciously.

Her husband may be suffering from “White Coat Syndrome,” or “White Coat Hypertension.”

This happens when a person who has normal blood pressure readings at home, gives high blood pressure readings at the doctor’s office.

Some of the problem could be attributed to errors when the blood pressure is taken.  The most common error made by medical personnel is taking blood pressure with a cuff that is too small.  This can result in a false high reading.

The question is:  Does White Coat Syndrome pose a health risk?  It is a much lower risk than chronic hypertension, but it is higher than normal.

What is important is to know when one’s blood pressure is increasing and for how long each time this happens.  If the only time one’s blood pressure goes up is the occasional doctor’s office visit and for only a few minutes, this probably isn’t an issue.  If, however, one is experiencing this phenomena several times per day, it could lead to chronic high blood pressure.

A common occurrence is that many people simply decide that they must just be suffering from White Coat Syndrome.

This is not surprising, given the fact that most of us would prefer that we suffer from an annoying condition, rather than a serious health risk like chronic hypertension.

I strongly urge you to see a doctor to determine what condition you are suffering from, whether it be White Coat syndrome or chronic high blood pressure.  Regardless of the condition, I highly recommend my High Blood Pressure Program.  It’s all natural breathing and relaxation exercises really work!

Insights from the Liraglutide Clinical Development Programthe Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes (LEAD) Studies

Abstract: Standard therapies for type 2 diabetes often fail to maintain glycemic control over the long term, in part because they do not target the underlying cause. Current treatments may also be associated with weight gain, hypoglycemia, and other adverse effects, and can be difficult to use. Disease progression is accompanied by a progressive decline in β-cell function, which begins early in the disease course, and an impaired incretin response. The recently developed glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists overcome some of the limitations of conventional treatments. This article summarizes the key results of the new GLP-1 receptor agonist (liraglutide) phase 3 Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes (LEAD) studies. This series of 6 randomized controlled studies involved > 4400 patients with type 2 diabetes who were unable to maintain glycemic control with diet and exercise alone or with oral treatment, ~2700 of whom received liraglutide. The studies demonstrated the efficacy and safety of liraglutide both as monotherapy and as combination therapy with 1 or 2 oral agents. In addition to providing robust glycemic control in these studies, liraglutide reduced weight in most patients, improved β-cell function, lowered blood pressure and triglycerides, and was well tolerated with minimal risk of hypoglycemia.
