Sumario:Introduction Hypertension (HTN) is a chronic condition that serves as a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, leading to increased mortality and morbidity. It is a frequent modifiable illness affecting global health, resulting in catastrophic fatalities and morbidity. Aim This study aims to investigate blood parameter profiles and their clinical implications in hypertensive patients at the Prince Faisal bin Khalid Cardiac Center in Abha, Saudi Arabia. Methods Utilizing retrospective data from 121 patients at the Prince Faisal bin Khalid Cardiac Center in Abha, Saudi Arabia. The hematological parameter examined were hemoglobin (HB), platelets, hematocrit (HCT), calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, urea, creatinine, and uric acid. The SPSS version 28 software was used for data analysis. Results Significant correlations between various hematological parameters were found in the results, pointing to potential connections between kidney function, the production of blood cells, and electrolyte balance in hypertensive patients. The results align with earlier studies carried out in the area and offer insightful information for clinicians and researchers interested in managing HTN and its complications. Conclusion The study emphasized the significance of considering hypertensive patients' age, gender, and lifestyle when interpreting their blood parameter profiles. The findings imply that a thorough comprehension of these blood parameter values and their potential effects on HTN is necessary for effectively managing HTN in this population. This study on the blood parameter profiles in hypertensive patients in Saudi Arabia provides the relationships between various hematological parameter and their clinical implications. These findings should be considered when creating targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific requirements and difficulties of managing HTN and its associated complications in this population. More research is required to comprehend the underlying reasons for the observed variations in hematological parameter profiles and their effects on the management of HTN.
