The May Measurement Month (MMM) screening campaign initiated by the International Society of Hypertension aimed to assess the prevalence of hypertension and associated risk factors to increase and improve population awareness of raised blood pressure (BP) and methods of prevention. The MMM is a cross-sectional survey of adults aged 18 years and over of both sexes who gave informed consent to participate in the survey and to have their BP measured. Kazakhstan participated in the campaign for the first time in 2021. Blood pressure was measured three times on a single occasion, and data on cardiovascular risk factors were collected. A total of 1763 respondents from 4 regions participated in the screening. The mean age was 41 ± 14.4 years; 31.5% of all participants were found to have hypertension, of whom 41.8% were aware, 34.0% on treatment, and only 15.8% controlled (<140/90 mmHg). Significant differences in these rates were found between age and sex groups. The screening campaign confirms low levels of awareness of hypertension and associated risk factors in the population in Kazakhstan and the need for annual screening and implementation of national hypertension control programmes.
由国际高血压学会发起的五月测量月(MMM)筛查活动旨在评估高血压及相关风险因素的患病率,以提高和改善民众对血压升高及预防方法的认识。MMM是一项针对18岁及以上成年男女的横断面调查,这些人已签署知情同意书,同意参与调查并测量血压。哈萨克斯坦于2021年首次参与该活动。在单次测量中测量了三次血压,并收集了心血管风险因素的数据。来自4个地区的1763名受访者参与了筛查。平均年龄为41±14.4岁;所有参与者中有31.5%被发现患有高血压,其中41.8%知晓自己患病,34.0%正在接受治疗,只有15.8%的血压得到控制(<140/90 mmHg)。在年龄和性别组之间发现了这些比率的显著差异。筛查活动证实了哈萨克斯坦民众对高血压及相关风险因素的知晓率较低,以及开展年度筛查和实施国家高血压控制项目的必要性。
