Hypertensive urgency
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
A hypertensive urgency is a clinical situation in which blood pressure should be lowered within 24 to 48 hours, in contrast to a hypertensive emergency where blood pressure must be lowered immediately and carefully to prevent or limit end organ damage. [1] Examples of hypertensive urgencies are accelerated hypertension, marked hypertension associated with congestive heart failure, stable angina pectoris, transient ischemic attacks, perioperative hypertension.[citation needed]
