Abstract

Objective:Through determining blood pressure of some individuals in five regions and making an analysis of relevant factors,understand prevalence rate of hypertension and risk factors in different population in order to provide a scientific basis for working out specific intervention measures.Methods:By adopting the simple random sampling method,questionnaire and physical examination are carried on among some people in Kunming,Honghe,Yuxi,Chuxiong,and Lijiang.Logistic regression is applied to analyze the risk factors for hypertension.Results:Among the residents of 1579 people(male 737,female 842),394 are hypertensive patients,so the hypertension prevalence rate is 24.95%;prevalence rate of hypertension in males 26.05%;23.99% for women.There is no significant gender difference between men and women(P0.05).Prevalence rate of hypertension is increased with age.An analysis of non-conditional logistic regression shows that age,sleeping quality,high-salt diet,body mass index are risk factors of hypertension,and OR values are 1.832,1.245,1.496,1.994.Conclusion:The regional survey shows a high prevalence rate of hypertension.Hypertension risk factors are age,sleeping quality,high-salt diet,body mass index.Therefore,prevention of hypertension should focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle.Meanwhile,it is also important to enhance blood pressure monitoring and do health education.
