TIP FAKÜLTESİ ÖĞRENCİLERİNDE PREHİPERTANSİYON SIKLIĞININ ARAŞTIRILMASI

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Tıp Fakültesi öğrencilerindeprehipertansiyon sıklığının araştırılmasıamaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma Mustafa KemalÜniversitesi Tıp Fakültesinde Şubat 2012 ile Nisan2012 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. Çalışmanınbaşlangıcında toplam 202 öğrenci incelendi. Tümbireylerin sistolik ve diyastolik kan basıncı (KB)düzeyleri ölçüldü. Bu bireylerin 189’u normotansifveya prehipertansif olduğundan çalışmaya dahiledildi. Geri kalan 13 öğrenci ise hipertansifolduğundan çalışma dışı bırakıldı. Özetlersek,çalışma 124’ü (% 65.6) erkek ve 65’i bayan(%34.4) olan 189 birey üzerinde yapıldı. Bunlarınyaş ortalamaları sırasıyla 21.2±0.92 ve 21.4±0.98idi. Tüm normotansif ve prehipertansif bireylerindemografik verileri, aile öyküleri ve yaşamtarzlarına ait bilgiler öğrenildi.Bulgular: Bu çalışmada, prehipertansiyon sıklığı%42.9 olarak bulundu. Prehipertansiflerin%77.8%’i erkek, %22.2’si bayandı. Erkeköğrencilerde prehipertansiyon sıklığı kızöğrencilere göre anlamlı oranlarda farklıydı(p=0.002). Ayrıca, prehipertansiflerin, vücut kitleindeksi (VKİ), bel çevresi ve bel-kalça oranlarınınnormotansiflere göre anlamlı olarak farklı olduğugörüldü.Sonuç: Prehipertansiyon sıklığı Tıp Fakültesiöğrencilerinde önemsenecek düzeylerde yükseksaptanmıştır. Bu bireyler aynı zamandakardiyovasküler risk faktörlerine sahipolduklarından, bu konunun daha fazla vurgulanmasıgerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır

The Investigation of The Prevalence of Prehypertension in Medical Faculty Students

Objective: The aim of the present study was toinvestigate the prevalence of prehypertensionamong medical faculty students.Material and Methods: The study was conductedin Mustafa Kemal University Medical Facultybetween February 2012 and April 2012. At thebeginning of the study, 202 students were enrolled.Systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels weremeasured for all the subjects. 189 participants (124male, 65 female) who are prehypertensive andnormotensive were included. Thirteen hypertensivestudents were excluded. The mean age was21.2±0.92 and 21.4±0.98 years, respectively.Demographic factors, family history, and lifestylewere obtained for all the participants.Results: In this study, the prevalence ofprehypertension was 42.9% (77.8% male, 22.2%female). The prevalence of prehypertension wassignificantly higher in male subjects compared tothe female subjects (p=0.002). Additionally, it wasshown that body mass index (BMI), waistcircumference, and waist-to-hip ratio weresignificantly different in the prehypertensive groupcompared to the normotensive group.Conclusion: The prevalence of prehypertensionwas found significantly higher among medicalfaculty students. It should be kept in mind thatprehypertension is very important in young medicalstudents in terms of cardiovascular risk factor.
