Key Points:
1. HTN causes cardiac stiffness, baroreflex failure, and poor cerebral autoregulation → hypotension.
2. Lower BP gradually.
3. For supine HTN: use short-acting nighttime agents or elevate head of bed.
4. Preferred agents: ACEi/ARB, hydralazine, nitro paste. Avoid short-acting CCBs, beta blockers.
