Abstract

Background: The present study was carried out to determine the nonnal range of BLOOD PRESSURE in 11-17 year-old students in Hamadan and to assess its correlation with their HEIGHT and WEIGHT.Materials and methods: A total of 1495 students including 732 boys and 763 girls were selected and studied.Results: Six boys (0.8%) and eight girls (1%) were revealed to have hypertension. The mean (±SD) of systolic and diastolic BLOOD PRESSURE of the boys was 95±10.5 and 61±8 mmHg, respectively. These figures increase smoothly with the age and reach to 113±13 and 73± 10 mmHg in 17-year-old boys. For girls, these figures were 105±12 and 69±9mmHg at age of 11 that increased to 115±11.5 and 74± 8mmHg at age of 17. Conclusion: Cloths of the girls have systematically biased their BLOOD PRESSURE figures to a level slightly more than reality. There was a linear correlation between both systolic and diastolic BLOOD PRESSURE with HEIGHT and WEIGHT of the subjects. The international standards quite suffice for evaluation of BLOOD PRESSURE in the studied age group. Promotion the periodic BLOOD PRESSURE measurement in children and ADOLESCENTs seems to be necessary.
