Complications of hypertension:
1. Heart disease
2. Stroke
3. Kidney disease
4. Vision loss
5. Peripheral artery disease
6. Aneurysm
7. Cognitive decline
8. Metabolic syndrome
9. Sexual dysfunction
10. Sleep apnea
Five general principles of management of chronic asthma:
1. Identifying and avoiding triggers
2. Using medications as prescribed by a healthcare provider
3. Monitoring symptoms and peak flow readings regularly
4. Developing an asthma action plan
5. Seeking regular medical care and follow-up appointments
Five pieces of evidence of streptococcal infection in rheumatic heart disease:
1. Presence of group A streptococcal antibodies in the blood
2. History of recent streptococcal infection, such as strep throat
3. Elevated levels of inflammatory markers in the blood
4. Evidence of carditis, arthritis, or chorea as manifestations of rheumatic fever
5. Positive throat culture for group A streptococcus

- Stroke
- Heart failure
- Aneurysm
- Peripheral artery disease
- Renal:

- Neurological:
- Dementia
- Cognitive impairment
- Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs)
- Ocular:
- Retinal damage
- Blindness
- Other:
- Erectile dysfunction
- Pregnancy complications
Five General Principles of Management of Chronic Asthma
1. Control inflammation: Use inhaled corticosteroids or other anti-inflammatory medications to reduce airway inflammation.
2. Bronchodilation: Use bronchodilators (e.g., beta-agonists, anticholinergics) to relax airway muscles and improve airflow.
3. Avoid triggers: Identify and avoid triggers that can cause asthma symptoms, such as allergens, pollutants, and exercise.
4. Monitor and adjust treatment: Regularly monitor asthma symptoms and lung function to adjust medication and management strategies as needed.
5. Education and self-management: Provide education to patients on the condition, medications, and self-management techniques to improve outcomes.
Five Pieces of Evidence of Streptococcal Infection in Rheumatic Heart Disease
1. Positive throat culture for Streptococcus pyogenes
2. Elevated antistreptolysin O (ASO) titer
3. Erythema marginatum: A non-itchy rash with raised, annular lesions
4. Subcutaneous nodules: Painless nodules over joints or bony prominences
5. Choreiform movements: Involuntary, purposeless movements caused by inflammation of the basal ganglia in the brain
