Hypertension, Knowledge, Practice, Control, Prevention

High blood pressure is a common condition that affects the body's arteries. It's also called hypertension. If you have high blood pressure, the force of the blood pushing against the artery walls is consistently too high. The heart has to work harder to pump blood. The American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association divide blood pressure into four general categories. Ideal blood pressure is categorized as normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg or lower. Elevated blood pressure ranges from 120 to 129 mm Hg and the bottom number is below, not above, 80 mm Hg. Stage 1 hypertension, the top number ranges from 130 to 139 mm Hg or the bottom number is between 80 and 89 mm Hg. Stage 2 hypertension the top number is 140 mm Hg or higher or the bottom number is 90 mm Hg or higher. Blood pressure higher than 180/120 mm Hg is considered a hypertensive emergency or crisis. Sometimes just getting a health check-up causes blood pressure to increase. This is called white coat hypertension. Untreated, high blood pressure increases the risk of heart attack, stroke and other serious health problems. It's important to have your blood pressure checked at least every two years starting at age 18. Some people need more-frequent checks. Healthy lifestyle habits —such as not smoking, exercising and eating well — can help prevent and treat high blood pressure. To assess the level of knowledge of G.N.M. 2nd year students regarding control and prevention of hypertension. To assess the practice of G.N.M. 2nd year students towards control and prevention of hypertension. To determine the association between the selected demographic variables and the knowledge of G.N.M 2nd year students. Descriptive research approach and non-experimental research design was adopted. 100 students of GNM 2nd year were included in the research study by using non probability purposive sampling technique. Regarding knowledge score of GNM 2nd yr. students. Out of 100 students, (21%) students were poor, (22%) students were average, (30%) students were good, (27%) students were excellent. Regarding practice score of GNM 2nd yr. students. Out of 100 students, (10%) students were poor, (40%) students were average, (30%) students were good, (20%) students were excellent. Chi-square test was done to find out the association between knowledge and selected demographic variables of the study at 0.05 level of significance.
