Abstract

Background: Researchers and health specialists are increasingly obtaining information on chronic illnesses from self-reports. This study validates self-reports of hypertension, based on a recently fielded survey in Mashhad City, Iran. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we used the results of 2015 census in Mashhad City, a population based survey of people over the age of 30 (n=300745) to determine the proportion of self-reported hypertension. In this study, the data of the studied population was extracted from the databank of Sina Electronic Health Record System (SinaEHR® ) and patients with ICD10 codes including I10 and I11 approved by doctors as a reference. Finally using SPSS software, version 20 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) and MedCalc (https: //www. medcalc. org/calc/odds_ratio. php), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value were calculated with 95% confidence interval. Results: Sensitivity of self-reported hypertension was 23. 92% (CI95%: 23. 43-24. 41), specificity 97. 03% (CI95%: 96. 97-97. 09), Positive Likelihood Ratio 8. 06% (CI95%: 7. 82-8. 30), Negative Likelihood Ratio 0. 78% (CI95%: 0. 78-0. 79), Positive Predictive Value 46. 34% (CI95%: 45. 60-47. 08), Negative Predictive Value 92. 25% (CI95%: 92. 20-92. 29). The self-reported sensitivity to hypertension in males, Iranian individuals, single, aged 60 and over, body mass index lower 18. 5 individual with university education was higher, which was 24. 67%, 31. 09%, 30. 07%, 32. 43% and 26. 03% respectively. Conclusion: Although the sensitivity of self-reported hypertension was poor in this study, but specificity and positive and negative predictive values were fairly good.
