Sympathetic Hypertensive Syndrome (SHS)
    Sympathetic surgery has been used to treat Angina and Hypertension for more than 60 years, but its therapeutic mechanism is still obscure. After a large series of clinical studies, Sympathetic Hypertensive Syndrome (SHS), a kind of surgical curable hypertension, was found by Dr. Lin. Sympathetic Hypertensive Syndrome includes: 1) Facial hyperhidrosis or blushing; 2) Blood pressure > 100 mmHg in diastolic pressure; 3) Pulse rate > 100 beats/min, which are “Triad of Sympathetic Hypertensive Syndrome”. Clinically, 25.0 – 30.0% of essential hypertensive patients are classified into Sympathetic Hypertensive Syndrome (SHS), which can be treated effectively by sympathetic procedure. Better surgical outcome is noted on people with ages before 45 years.
