Abstract:
Objective To explore the current situation of the prevalence of hypertension among residents in our city and to analyze its risk factors, so as to provide references for formulating preventive measures. Methods All 600 residents(300 each for male and female) who received physical examination in the outpatient department in our hospital from June 2013 to June 2014 were selected according to random sample. Questionnaire with the form of one-on-one inter-view was applied for the investigation. Awareness rate, control rate and treatment rate of hypertension among different genders and ages were analyzed. The patients were divided into disease group and healthy group,and risk factors were analyzed. Results Among 600 residents received physical examination, 156 patients had hypertension. The prevalence rate,awareness rate, treatment rate and control rate were 26%, 54.49%, 50% and 20.51% respectively, and the dif-ferences could be seen between genders and ages. Differences of smoking, heavy drinking, high-salt diet, obesity,high blood sugar and abnormal blood lipid compared between healthy people and patients could be seen. The above factors were risk factors for hypertension. Conclusion Awareness rate, control rate and treatment rate of hypertension among residents in our city were relatively low. Publicity and education should be properly strengthened based on the characteristics of gender and age groups of the residents,so as to reduce the harm of hypertension.
