[Arterial hypertension induced by a nasal decongestant. Value of the use of an automatic and programmable recording technic].
The case of a twenty-three-year-old woman with spasmodic coryza in whom the overuse of a nasal decongestant resulted in arterial hypertension is reported. The relationship between the treatment and the occurrence of hypertension is firmly established. The original feature of this case is the use of the technique for monitoring the blood pressure and heart rate, before and after the treatment had been discontinued, which ascertained the hypertension, making it appear as an experimental model.
