Prevalence of Hypertension in Patients Presenting to Mardan Medical Complex for ABPM Monitoring: A Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract

    A major contributor to morbidity and mortality globally is hypertension. It is usually underdiagnosed. ABPM has a role in diagnosing this important entity in a general asymptomatic population. It was a descriptive cross-sectional study carried out at the Cardiac Diagnostic Centre of the Cardiology Department of MTI Mardan Medical Complex, where we reviewed our ABPM computer registry from June 2017 to December 2022. The frequency of blood pressure was 36%. In different age groups, it was more in males than females. Hypertension is common and more prevalent in males than females.
