Abstract

Introduction

Hypertension (HT) is considered as a major determinant of cardiovascular complications. However, few studies have addressed HT prevalence among adults aged 60 years and older in the northern mountainous region of Vietnam.

Aim

To determine the prevalence of HT and its risk factors in the elderly in that area.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted in a study area in the northern of Vietnam. We interviewed 354 adults aged 60 years or over who were randomly selected, and then measured their blood pressure.

Results

The overall HT prevalence was 62.15%. The isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) prevalence was 22.88%. There was a slight decrease in the proportion of HT by stage 1, stage 2 and stage 3 respectively. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated some risk factors for HT including age groups, body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) (p < 0.05). Furthermore, we also found that the risk factors of ISH was obesity status classified by BMI category and WHR (p < 0.05). In particularly, the ethnicity was statistically significantly associated with ISH.

Conclusion

Our data showed a high prevalence of hypertension in the elderly in studied area. The risk factors for HT and ISH among studied subjects included age groups, ethnic groups, BMI and WHR. Hence, these findings are important for policy-making related to launch public health prevention and control campaigns for hypertension among older adults in the northern mountainous region of Vietnam.

Kaffeegenuss sicher bei Vorhofflimmern

Menschen mit Vorhofflimmern fürchten oft, Kaffee könnte schlecht für ihr Herz sein. Solche Ängste sind offenbar unbegründet: Zwei Schweizer Untersuchungen deuten sogar auf eine reduzierte Rate von kardiovaskulären Ereignissen unter Kaffeetrinkern.

Mit jedem Defibrillationsversuch sinkt die Überlebenschance

Wie wirkt es sich auf die Prognose aus, wenn bei Herzstillstand einmal, zweimal oder gar 29 Mal geschockt werden muss? Laut einer aktuellen Studie besteht ein deutlicher Zusammenhang zwischen der Zahl der Defibrillationsversuche und den Überlebenschancen.

Mit Spenderherz von Triathlon zu Triathlon

Ein 50-Jähriger mit Spenderherz rennt, radelt und schwimmt bis zu 14 Stunden in der Woche – beim Hawaii-Triathlon erreicht er einen Platz im Mittelfeld. Sein neues Herz kann sich an die Belastung erstaunlich gut anpassen. Selbst mit 65 Jahren ist er noch ungewöhnlich fit.

Kein Unterschied bei inadäquaten Schocks zwischen ICD-Typen

Inadäquate Schockabgaben sind ein unerwünschter Effekt der Therapie mit implantierbaren Kardioverter-Defibrillatoren. Subkutanen Geräten haftet dabei der Ruf an, dafür besonders anfällig zu sein. Die PRAETORIAN-Forschungsgruppe ist dem nachgegangen.
