Objective: The aim of the present study was to
investigate the prevalence of prehypertension
among medical faculty students.
Material and Methods: The study was conducted
in Mustafa Kemal University Medical Faculty
between February 2012 and April 2012. At the
beginning of the study, 202 students were enrolled.
Systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels were
measured for all the subjects. 189 participants (124
male, 65 female) who are prehypertensive and
normotensive were included. Thirteen hypertensive
students were excluded. The mean age was
21.2±0.92 and 21.4±0.98 years, respectively.
Demographic factors, family history, and lifestyle
were obtained for all the participants.
Results: In this study, the prevalence of
prehypertension was 42.9% (77.8% male, 22.2%
female). The prevalence of prehypertension was
significantly higher in male subjects compared to
the female subjects (p=0.002). Additionally, it was
shown that body mass index (BMI), waist
circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio were
significantly different in the prehypertensive group
compared to the normotensive group.
Conclusion: The prevalence of prehypertension
was found significantly higher among medical
faculty students. It should be kept in mind that
prehypertension is very important in young medical
students in terms of cardiovascular risk factor.

TIP FAKÜLTESİ ÖĞRENCİLERİNDE PREHİPERTANSİYON SIKLIĞININ ARAŞTIRILMASI

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Tıp Fakültesi öğrencilerinde
prehipertansiyon sıklığının araştırılması
amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma Mustafa Kemal
Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesinde Şubat 2012 ile Nisan
2012 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. Çalışmanın
başlangıcında toplam 202 öğrenci incelendi. Tüm
bireylerin sistolik ve diyastolik kan basıncı (KB)
düzeyleri ölçüldü. Bu bireylerin 189’u normotansif
veya prehipertansif olduğundan çalışmaya dahil
edildi. Geri kalan 13 öğrenci ise hipertansif
olduğundan çalışma dışı bırakıldı. Özetlersek,
çalışma 124’ü (% 65.6) erkek ve 65’i bayan
(%34.4) olan 189 birey üzerinde yapıldı. Bunların
yaş ortalamaları sırasıyla 21.2±0.92 ve 21.4±0.98
idi. Tüm normotansif ve prehipertansif bireylerin
demografik verileri, aile öyküleri ve yaşam
tarzlarına ait bilgiler öğrenildi.
Bulgular: Bu çalışmada, prehipertansiyon sıklığı
%42.9 olarak bulundu. Prehipertansiflerin
%77.8%’i erkek, %22.2’si bayandı. Erkek
öğrencilerde prehipertansiyon sıklığı kız
öğrencilere göre anlamlı oranlarda farklıydı
(p=0.002). Ayrıca, prehipertansiflerin, vücut kitle
indeksi (VKİ), bel çevresi ve bel-kalça oranlarının
normotansiflere göre anlamlı olarak farklı olduğu
görüldü.
Sonuç: Prehipertansiyon sıklığı Tıp Fakültesi
öğrencilerinde önemsenecek düzeylerde yüksek
saptanmıştır. Bu bireyler aynı zamanda
kardiyovasküler risk faktörlerine sahip
olduklarından, bu konunun daha fazla vurgulanması
gerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır
