-elevation of BP >220 systolic or >120 diastolic could be either malignant hypertension or urgent hypertension.
-to diagnose malignant hypertension papilledema should be present......if no papilledema this is urgent hypertension.
-malignant hypertension should be admitted to the ICU.....urgent hypertension doesnot need ICU admission.
