Main Article Content
Abstract
5 students in Maung District, Chonburi Province.
The sample consisted of 930 grade 5 students in schools in Maung District, Chonburi. The instrument was an interview form.
The study was shown that the prevalence of hypertension was 5.8%; high SBP was 3.5% and high DBP was 3.6%. Furthermore, the study was shown that the prevalence of obesity 32.5%, overweight 13.4%. The correlation of the BP and risk factors was determined by using multiple linear regression and we found the correlation between % wt for ht and age with SBP, the correlation between % wt for ht and income of parents per month with DBP. Both SBP and DBP were significantly (P < 0.05) positively related to % wt for ht. To be specified, an increase of 1% wt for ht was associated with, an average an increase of 0.2 mmHg in both SBP and DBP. Otherwise, an increase of 1 month of age was associated with on average a decrease of 0.07 mmHg in SBP, whereas an increase of 1 bath for income of parents, on average an increase of 0.07 mmHg in DBP.
