摘要

The incidence of neonatal hypertension (HTN) remains low, at less than 2%, and its etiology is varied. Strict definitions of HTN in neonates are unavailable, and the decision to treat is based on opinion rather than evidence. More studies are needed to define normal blood pressure in neonates and to refine current reference values, thus permitting a better definition of HTN. Most causes of neonatal HTN, the most common of which seems to be renovascular disease, are determined by history and basic clinical investigations. Treatment is guided by clinical judgment and expert opinion, given the limited number of clinical trials.
