DAPS: Determination of Threshold Values of Aldosterone in HPLC-MS/MS, of Renin and of the Aldosterone / Renin Ratio for the Diagnosis of Primary Hyperaldosteronism
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
collaborative work within 2 hospitals at the CHU of Caen, at the CHRU of Lille, concerning the evaluation of the biological markers of primary hyperaldosteronism (PAH) with the dosage of aldosterone in LC -MS/MS, which is performed in both centers, with two different techniques. The main objective is to define the range of Aldosterone concentrations in LC MS/MS, of renin in an automated method, in populations of healthy volunteers, essential hypertensives, and hypertensives with primary hyperaldosteronism. , in order to establish a threshold for the screening of PAH by the RAR, and for the confirmation of PAH by a dynamic test with an Aldosterone threshold post salt load test.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Aldosterone values in LC-MS/MS (and renin) and RAR calculation and calculation of an RAR threshold for PAH screening which differentiates between essential hypertension and PAH. [baseline]
Define the range of concentrations of Aldosterone in LC MS/MS, of renin in an automated immunological method with calculation of the RAR, in populations of healthy volunteers, essential hypertensives, and hypertensives with primary hyperaldosteronism , in order to establish a threshold for the detection of PAH by the RAR, and for the confirmation of PAH by a dynamic test of confirmation by Aldosterone.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Patients (18-75 years old) with moderate to severe hypertension, which justifies carrying out an etiological assessment in a hospital environment.
-
Assessment carried out in compliance with the standardized measurement conditions of the RAR defined by the SFE consensus,
-
Signature of a written consent by the patient
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Patient on antihypertensive treatment other than alpha-blockers, calcium channel blockers or centrally acting antihypertensive
-
Etiology of secondary hypertension other than PAH
