Abstract

Objectives: Study on the current status of hypertension and some factors related to hypertension in the elderly in Hanoi in 2022. Subjects and methods: Analytical cross-sectional study. The study subjects were the elderly living in 5 wards of Dong Da district, Hanoi: Phuong Mai, Trung Liet, Kim Lien, O Cho Dua and Trung Tu, from April 2022 to October 2022. Results: The prevalence of hypertension in the elderly was 59.8%, among those with hypertension, 45.6% had been previously diagnosed with hypertension and 39.2% were being treated for hypertension. Among the elderly with undiagnosed hypertension, the majority were grade I hypertension (78.9%) and systolic hypertension (72.9%). The prevalence of hypertension in the elderly tended to increase with age. In multivariate analysis, age ≥ 80 years (1.967; <0.01; 1.356-2.853); abnormal WHR index (OR=1.597; 0.019; 1.078-2.311), smoking (OR=1.451; 0.019; 1.063-1.981), diabetes ((OR= 2.237; <0.01; 1.515-3.302) and lipid metabolism disorder (OR= 1.82; <0.01; 1.35-2.454) were risk factors associated with hypertension in the elderly. Conclusion: The prevalence of hypertension in the elderly was 59.8%. In multivariate analysis, age ≥ 80 years; abnormal WHR, smoking, diabetes, and lipid metabolism disorders were risk factors associated with hypertension in the elderly.
