Summary

This study looks at whether a new cutoff for a blood test (aldosterone-renin ratio) can better identify people with primary aldosteronism, a common cause of high blood pressure. About 150 adults with hypertension and certain lab results will be tested using the new cutoff and then followed after treatment. The goal is to see how many tests are needed to find one case and to find the best cutoff for Korean patients.
