Abstract (english)
The aim of this article was to investigate the prevalence of hypertension with selected anthropometric variables in a sample of hospitalized coronary heart disease (CHD) patients in Croatia. This study investigated patients hospitalized in the period of October 1st 2007 until January 7th 2010 because of acute or chronic CHD in various hospitals in Croatia (N = 1,298). Prevalence of hypertension in surveyed patient population was high: 70.1% of participants had raised blood pressure (BP) or previously diagnosed hypertension. Men had statistically significantly higher mean diastolic BP values than women (78.91 +/- 8.97 vs. 77.12 +/- 10.61 mmHg, p = 0.011). Prevalence of hypertension was statistically significantly more frequent in women (80.6% vs. 65.8%, p < 0.001). Hypertension still represents an important problem among hospitalized Croatian CHD patients. Its prevalence, unfortunately, continues to increase in this population, suggesting that there is still great potential for improvement of preventive cardiology standards and measures that have already been undertaken.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti pojavnost hipertenzije uz odabrane antropometrijske varijable u uzorku bolesnika hospitaliziranih zbog koronarne bolesti srca u Republici Hrvatskoj. U istraživanju su sudjelovali bolesnici hospitalizirani od 1. listopada 2007. g. do 7. siječnja 2010. g. zbog akutne ili kronične ishemijske bolesti srca u bolnicama diljem Hrvatske (N=1.298). Prevalencija hipertenzije u istraživanoj populaciji bila je visoka: čak 70,1% ispitanika imalo je povišene vrijednosti arterijskog tlaka ili od ranije postavljenu dijagnozu arterijske hipertenzije. Kod muških ispitanika srednje vrijednosti dijastoličkog arterijskog tlaka bile su statistički značajno više u odnosu na ispitanice (78,91±8,97 prema 77,12±10,61 mmHg, p=0,011). Prevalencija hipertenzije bila je statistički značajno češća kod žena (80,6% prema 65,8%, p<0.001). Hipertenzija još uvijek predstavlja značajan problem u populaciji hospitaliziranih koronarnih bolesnika u Hrvatskoj. Nažalost, učestalost hipertenzije je u porastu u ovoj populaciji, što pokazuje i dalje postoje velike mogućnosti poboljšanja standarda preventivne kardiologije i u praksi već poduzetih mjera.
