Which manifestation is related to target organ disease from hypertension? Select all that apply.
One, some, or all responses may be correct.

Choice A rationale:

Anemia is not a direct manifestation of target organ damage from hypertension.

Choice B rationale:

Aneurysm is a correct answer. Persistent high blood pressure can weaken the walls of arteries, making them more susceptible to forming an aneurysm. Aneurysms can occur in various arteries, such as the aorta, and can lead to life-threatening complications if they rupture.

Choice C rationale:

Proteinuria is also a correct answer. Hypertension can damage the kidneys, leading to proteinuria, the presence of excess proteins in the urine. This is an indication of kidney damage and is a common manifestation of hypertensive target organ disease.

Choice D rationale:

Pneumonia and Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) are not direct manifestations of target organ damage from hypertension.

Choice A rationale:

Dizziness with a blood pressure of 150/92 mm Hg indicates hypertension, but it is not an immediate life-threatening condition requiring urgent assessment compared to a severe headache and vomiting.

Choice B rationale:

A severe headache and vomiting could be indicative of a serious neurological condition such as a stroke, intracranial bleeding, or increased intracranial pressure. This patient needs urgent assessment and intervention to prevent potential complications.

Choice C rationale:

A hip fracture with a pain level of 2 on a 1-to-10 scale suggests pain but is not immediately life-threatening compared to symptoms like severe headache and vomiting.

Choice D rationale:

Fatigue after receiving an ACE inhibitor is a common side effect and, while important to monitor, does not pose an immediate threat compared to the symptoms of severe headache and vomiting.
