Although the prevalence of hypertension (HTN) continues to increase in developing countries, including China, recent data are lacking. A nationwide survey was conducted from October 2012 to December 2015 to assess the prevalence of HTN in China.
A stratified multistage random sampling method was used to obtain a nationally representative sample of 451 755 residents ≥18 years of age from 31 provinces in mainland China from October 2012 to December 2015. Blood pressure (BP) was measured after resting for 5 minutes by trained staff using a validated oscillometric BP monitor. HTN was defined as systolic BP (SBP) ≥140 mm Hg/or diastolic BP (DBP) ≥90 mm Hg or use of antihypertensive medication within 2 weeks. Pre-HTN was defined as SBP 120 to 139 mm Hg and DBP 80 to 89 mm Hg without antihypertensive medication. HTN control was defined as SBP <140 mm Hg and DBP<90 mm Hg. In addition, the prevalence of HTN (SBP ≥130 or DBP ≥80 mm Hg) and control rate (SBP <130 and DBP <80 mm Hg) of HTN were also estimated according to the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association High Blood Pressure Guideline.
Overall, 23.2% (≈244.5 million) of the Chinese adult population ≥18 years of age had HTN, and another 41.3% (≈435.3 million) had pre-HTN according to the Chinese guideline. There were no significant differences of HTN prevalence between urban and rural residents (23.4% versus 23.1%, =0.819). Among individuals with HTN, 46.9% were aware of their condition, 40.7% were taking prescribed antihypertensive medications, and 15.3% had controlled HTN. Calcium channel blockers were the most commonly used antihypertensive medication (46.5%) as monotherapy, and 31.7% of treated hypertensive patients used ≥2 medications. The prevalence of HTN based on the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association guideline was twice as high as that based on 2010 Chinese guideline (46.4%), whereas the control rate fell to 3.0%.
In China, there is a high prevalence of HTN and pre-HTN, and awareness, treatment, and control of HTN were low. Management of medical therapy for HTN needs to improve.
尽管包括中国在内的发展中国家高血压(HTN)的患病率持续上升,但最近的数据仍有所欠缺。2012 年 10 月至 2015 年 12 月期间进行了一项全国性调查,以评估中国的 HTN 患病率。
采用分层多阶段随机抽样方法,从中国大陆 31 个省的≥18 岁居民中抽取了具有全国代表性的 451755 名居民作为样本。由经过培训的工作人员使用经过验证的示波血压计在休息 5 分钟后测量血压(BP)。高血压定义为收缩压(SBP)≥140mmHg/或舒张压(DBP)≥90mmHg,或在 2 周内使用降压药物。高血压前期定义为 SBP 为 120-139mmHg,DBP 为 80-89mmHg,且未服用降压药物。高血压控制定义为 SBP<140mmHg 和 DBP<90mmHg。此外,还根据 2017 年美国心脏病学会/美国心脏协会高血压指南,估计了高血压(SBP≥130 或 DBP≥80mmHg)的患病率和高血压控制率(SBP<130mmHg 和 DBP<80mmHg)。
总体而言,根据中国指南,中国≥18 岁的成年人口中有 23.2%(约 2.445 亿人)患有高血压,另有 41.3%(约 4.353 亿人)患有高血压前期。城乡居民高血压患病率无显著差异(23.4%比 23.1%,=0.819)。在高血压患者中,46.9%知晓自己的病情,40.7%服用规定的降压药物,15.3%的高血压患者血压得到控制。钙通道阻滞剂是最常用的降压药物(46.5%)单药治疗,31.7%的高血压治疗患者使用≥2 种药物。根据 2017 年美国心脏病学会/美国心脏协会指南,高血压的患病率是根据 2010 年中国指南的两倍(46.4%),而控制率则降至 3.0%。
在中国,高血压和高血压前期的患病率较高,高血压的知晓率、治疗率和控制率较低。需要改善高血压的药物治疗管理。
