Cardiovascular (CV)
Cardiovascular disease from renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) dysfunction arises when overactivation of the pathway drives excess angiotensin II production, leading to vasoconstriction, sodium retention, vascular remodelling, and hypertension. The consequences of uncontrolled hypertension are associated with significant physical and psychosocial impacts on patients' daily lives.
