Prevalence of Hypertension in School and College Students

Rumah Ginjal - Abstract In Indonesia, the onset of hypertension has been observed in younger po- pulations. Previous studies showed that hypertension occurred in adoles- cence, even in childhood. This cross sectional study aimed to provide a po- pulation-based estimation of hypertension prevalence and risk factors among school and college students in Surabaya, Indonesia. Using mercu- ry sphygmomanometer blood pressure was measured in 335 participants grouped into 5 _ 9, 10 _ 14, 15 _ 19, and 20 _ 26 years of age. The preva- lence data was linked to sex, age, body mass index (BMI), and a family his- tory of diabetes and/ or cardiovascular disease.
