The contest invited posts about Hypertensive Emergency:

Please create a post with answers to the following questions about Hypertensive Emergency:

1. What is it?
2. How would you diagnose it?
3. How would you manage/treat this condition if this was your patient?

I received two entries to the contest from the following steemians:

• Hypertensive Emergency, Meaning, Diagnosis and Treatment by @gallantmayor
• Medical Contest Entry - About Hypertensive Emergency by @gamsam

Both were strong entries, featuring description of Malignant Hypertension, Hypertensive Emergency, diagnosis and treatment options. I liked both posts, and gave them both my upvote. I found the entry from @gallantmayor a bit more detailed and specific, making this a winning entry. Congratulations!

Now that we have our first successful contest/medtest completed time to move to the next one! I will post the next medtest topic later today (Jan 15).
